Josh's POV

You see me start walking with a few escorts of the 505th PIR. He is all packed. Next you see the main 6 other guys and Yumi come up all packed.

"Whoa, and where do you think you're going you guys?" I ask

"We're going to the 505's HQ, right?" Jeremie responds

"No… No… No, you guys stay here, if you remember General Winters said only me. I have to go, all by myself." I explain

"Oh, okay, well good luck." Odd says

"Why are you wishing me good luck, you guys got airborne training to do, remember?" I say

"DAMIT!" Jimmy yells

"Don't worry, I'll be back, and… well I'll be back, I promise." I promise

You see Josh pull the clip stuck in his Thompson .45 caliber sub-machine gun, looks at it, then forcefully sticks it in the gun, and finally cocks the recoil of the gun. Now he starts walking off into the distance.

"Sooo, where's the 505's HQ?" I ask one of the escorts

"Vierville, you must be tired, I mean we've been walking for 9… 10 hours. Here have a drink." The escort offers

"No thank you, hey what's that?" I ask

Next I see hundreds of Whermacht soldiers with their hands up and walking 10 lines. Next you see one of then start running away, he runs up to me and grabs and start speaking really fast.

"helfen Sie mir, helfen Sie mir, lassen Sie sie nicht mich verletzen bitte bitte" the German says

"Wh… What do, why do you want me to help you?" I ask

"Sie haben mich geschlagen, seitdem ich ubergab." The German answers

Next you see a soldier of the 116th Regiment come up and grab the German. Then I grab and stop the soldier and tell him to let me hold him prisoner. The soldier says yes and leaves.

"Vielen Dank Kamerad. Ich verdanke Ihnen miene Lebensdauser." The German says

" Your welcome, now get going." I say

"Nein, I owe you my life Amerikaner." The German says

"Yo… You speak English?" I ask confused

"Ja spreche ich Englisch, aber gutes das." The German says

"Well what's your name? I'm Josh… Lt. Josh Piper" I introduce myself

"Mein Name IST Rudolf, Rudolf von Heiberstein." Rudolf answers

"Nice to meet you Rudolf, hey you want to come with me? I'm going to the 505th PIR's HQ." I ask

"Yes uh Josh ist es." Rudolf answers

After almost 17 hours of walking altogether, the escort and their objective reach the 505's HQ. It takes almost 1 1/2 hours for me to get Easy Company in, I also introduce Rudolf and am able to get him in the Company as Private First Class, and Rudolf is the translator. Finally we're 1 mile away from where Easy Company is.

"Hey Rudolf do you have any children?" I ask

"Yes, I have a beautiful daughter named Rosanna, and I have a strong son named Dietrich, but we all call him Dieter." Rudolf answers, " Yes unlike Rosanna, her mother, and I Dieter is drawn closer to the Nazis Party then I am. I know how much of a sissy Hitler is, I fought next to him in the Volkstrum during WW1."

"Oh you did, did you? How good is he when it comes down to fighting?" I ask " Hey Ulrich!"

"JOSH!" Ulrich says running up "OH SHIT KRAUT, JOSH GET DOWN!"

"NO! DON'T SHOOT, I SAY AGAIN DON'T SHOOT!" I yell back "HE'S AN ALLIE!"

"What do you mean he's an Allie? Ulrich asks looking at the German

"I drafted him in, he's Pfc. Heiberstein." I answer, " I saved his life."

"Oh, alright." Ulrich says

"Hello, I'm Cpt. Foley, I lead Fox Company, nice to meet you." Foley greets

"I'm Lt. Piper, I am leading Easy Company, nice to meet you to." I greet back
