Here's chapter 37 everybody.
Chapter 37: Independence Day.
The flags of the world's nations flies proudly on their flag poles. The sun is about to rise soon. And pilots are prepared for the biggest mission ever. The Aces, leaders, and commanders has arrived outside to greet the pilots, mostly the volunteers.
"Good morning." Brian said as he salutes the pilots. They salute back. "They're a little young."
"That they are." Donaldson said.
"They look a little nervous." Brian said.
Meanwhile, Major Bishop was giving instructions to the flight crews and pilots with a PA on top of a vehicle.
"I'm gonna need all flight crews to report to their designated areas immediately." Bishop ordered.
"Major, can I borrow that?" Brian asked.
"Yes, sir." Bishop replied.
Brian failed to realized that the PA is hooked to a device which will broadcast his upcoming speech to military forces and millions of people from around the world.
"Good morning." Brian said, but there was no feedback from the PA. He turns it on. "Good morning." Brian got the attention of everyone and walked towards him, including his new Ace friends, leaders and commanders, his squadron, the volunteers, Dean and his kids. "In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world, and you will be launching the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind. 'Mankind'. That word should have new meaning for all of us today. We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore. We will be united in our common interests. Perhaps it's fate that today is the Nineteenth of September, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom… Not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution… but from annihilation. We are fighting for our right to live. To exist. And should we win the day... the Nineteenth of September will no longer be known as an Usean holiday... but as the day when the world declared in one voice, we will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight! We're going to live on! We're going to survive! Today we celebrate our Independence Day!"
Everybody started cheering. Some people hoist their weapons in the air, some gave salutes, or some just clap their hands and smile. This is probably the most inspiring speech everyone has heard for Colonel Brian Fenton has united the human race as a species and not just citizens of different nations. Afterwards, Brian grabs his flight helmet and got off the vehicle.
"Let's go!" Brian said.
Meanwhile, Bishop was helping Bartlett out.
"General Bartlett, this way. We got your gear over here. I got your jumpsuit for you, and the rest of your gear's squared away in this duffel. You got your choice of helmets." Bishop said.
Thomas then saw what Bartlett is doing and he, along with his squadmates, approached him.
"General Bartlett, I'd sure like to know what you're doing." Thomas said. Bartlett smiled.
"I may be old, but I'm a combat pilot, Kid. I belong in the air." Bartlett replied.
Thomas only replied with a nod.
"Okay, sir. Let's get you airborne. Right over here." Bishop said.
With that, every pilot starts heading for their aircraft. Brian in his blue-tinted F-22, Scarface Squadron in their Su-35s, the Razgriz in their black F-14As, Drake in his blue streak wing F-15C, Larry in his red wing F-15C, Garuda Team in their F-15Es, Windhover, Lanner and Saker in their F-16Cs, Avalanche, Blizzard and Serac in their F/A-18F Super Hornets, Sky Kid, Blue Max, and Red Baron in their Mirage-2000s, Stingray, Whipray, and Sawfish in their A-10s, Bartlett in his F-14A, painted in OADF markings and Wardog Squadron theme, and Dean in his Pennant Squadron X-02 Wyverns.
That's the end of this chapter. Most iconic speech in the movie. Anyway, please review.
