Thanks for the Chapter, I was thinking here if Lorenzo wants to recruit people of authority he will have to have a very high rank in the army or gain the trust of these people but it will be very difficult
Sargent minimum is need for that. which for back then he could get after his MOS( job) training after basic. what job is he going to get? infantry, air borne? I dont think the author ever said. his minions with him are for sure Infantry or tank operators .
