Furey found himself, as usual, hunched over the dull and boring piles of paperwork that he had to finish as a Major. He hadn't seen the front lines in months, but his hair was graying faster than ever. He hated the feelling when he found out a group of his men died, and it was getting to him.
Today, though, he would be able to get the chance to relax. He found himself walking out of his office after finishing one of a forms that he had to fill out for a promotion. He found himself stepping into the fresh air of the french countryside, smelling the crisp air of the french countryside. In-front of his HQ sat his Plymouth staff car.
Furey yawned, and walked down the brick steps of the HQ. He found himself smiling at his priviatly hired French Driver, a 73 year old man whom needed a job after his little business was destroyed by german forces retreating out of Paris. For twenty dollars a month, he was one of the greatest friends he had made.
He looked at his driver, and said "Hiya, Pierre, 1st armored division HQ"
Pierre nodded, opening the door of his car for him, and Furey got into the car, watching Pierre shut the door, then walk over to the side of the car, and getting into the drivers seat of the car, and beginning to drive it away.
He saluted a few of his men that were busy doing things on the airfield, and soon found himself speeding out of the front gate, and down the long winding roads through a thick forest that separated the 9th Air-force and the 1st Armored Division, the fresh air blowing through his open window during the crisp March day.
After about 20 minutes of driving, he found Pierre coming upon a clearing, and found himself watching Pierre slowing to a stop in-front of the gates of the divisional Headquarters. He watched one of the men walk over to the side of his staff car, and salute at him, before Furey showed him the orders he'd written himself.
As the other guard opened the gate, Pierre nodded, smiling, and pulled the car forward. He began to speed down the fields of the divisional HQ, passing by tanks and groups of infantry on parade. He looked around as the HQ Building came into view.
As Pierre slowed to a stop in-front of the HQ, Furey got out of his staff car, looking around at the many men that were busy with their tanks. He set his Visor cap ontop of his head, fitting it firmly with his head, before pulling a cigar out of his Jacket pocket, and clipping the butt of it, then light it, putting it in his mouth, and taking a deep breath. He stood there, waiting for Wiktor Boguslaw to greet him.
