As he listened to the person speak in front of him, assigning him to the 5th Fleet Suffolk, a large, frank smile took over the young man's face. His eyes glistened upon realizing the opportunity he was given. For a short time, he could not pace the onslaught of words that wanted to spill out of his mouth... quite uncharacteristic of a former Rheinland officer cadet.
"Sir... I... I cannot thank you enough... I... I don't know what to say! I'm honoured- MORE than honoured to serve Her Majesty and the people of Bretonia!"
In a rare moment of absolute joy, he extends his hand and gives the man a firm handshake.
He bends down to sign the form handed to him by the man sitting behind the desk. He eagerly signs it.
"Thank you, danke schon... I promise you... I will not let Bretonia down and I will become something... something good. Thank you."
