The first time I watched it, I didn’t understand the role of the captain too much. Maybe it was because I was immersed in the aura of the captain America in his "Purple Heart". This time I saw that this role was amazingly combined with the slums. The complexity of playboy + cynical personal hero.
First of all, his father seems to be a very restrained and clean low-level citizen. He and his father are also very respectful, but he is very cautious when he speaks a thousand words, shaking hands every time.
Maybe he used to be a rebellious teenager who made his father worry about and disappointed. His grades were not good, and he finally became a handsome dish-bearer, disappointing his family. Maybe I became independent too early, so I seem to be separated from my family.
The war came, he responded to the country’s call to join the army. He had excellent physique (as can be seen from his punching people on the ground) and was selected into the air force. He probably met at a reception or dance party when he was elected to the air force before he went to the battlefield. He became the most beautiful girl, just in the spring breeze. The girl’s enthusiasm and flattery made him feel that he had met true love, flash marriage, and then 20 days later, he was thrown to Europe to be responsible for throwing bombs.
He has experienced many deaths on the battlefield. He is very simple, his brain is not bright but very brave. His plane was bombed and his teammate died in front of him. He was seriously injured but he climbed up to the scope and threw the bomb down to complete the mission.
All he did in the entire European battlefield was to throw bombs. His military rank was to throw bombs. He was purely persistent and would not lie. Therefore, when applying for a job, he honestly translated all his heroic behaviors into one sentence: I am only responsible for aiming. Target, throw bombs.
His award was signed by the Major General of the Air Force, praising him as a hero who defended the honor of the Air Force.
He himself believes that as an Air Force officer of 400$ a month, it is okay to live in a suburban area after retiring. He emphasized the suburbs, saying that people in foreign countries are dreaming.
When he returned from the battlefield, the dream had not yet woken up. But since he was an air force and couldn't get on the plane to go home, the dream began to wake up.
He thought he would never have to go back to his previous grocery store, but the two years he spent desperately throwing bombs in Europe gave his deputy a chance to become his boss. Everyone told him that your battlefield experience is useless, not as good as two years of studying trade or even two years in the market.
He thought he had at least a wife waiting for him. When he came back, his wife was working in a nightclub. He disliked his civilian clothes, disliked his current identity, disliked his wages of 32 yuan a week, and finally dumped him.
His last job was as a "fallen angel" to dismantle planes under tank soldiers.
A former Air Force hero who recycles aircraft scraps, he laughs at himself that this is the job that people think best fits his temperament experience.
But in any case, he finally pursued the girl who loved him so much that he wanted to destroy his marriage. It is gratifying. After accepting the broken dream, he began to pursue a new dream. In this sense, he is a hero.
