A young sergeant challenged a female recruit to a fight, trying to humiliate her in front of the entire company: but when the girl pulled this out of her pocket, everyone was stunned.
A young sergeant challenged a female recruit to a fight, trying to humiliate her in front of the entire company: but when the girl pulled this out of her pocket, everyone was stunned.
In the military unit, they were already talking about the new girl even before she arrived.
Some had heard she’d been transferred from another unit. Others said she had serious training. And some were convinced she’d been sent there by mistake, because there were almost never any women in those kinds of units.
When the military bus arrived at the unit’s yard in the morning, many came out specially to see the newcomer.
A short girl with dark hair neatly tied back in a bun got off the bus. She looked calmly around, picked up her sports bag, and headed towards headquarters.
Several soldiers looked at each other and smiled.
—And this is our “reinforcement”? — one said quietly.
“She won’t even be able to lift a weapon heavier than herself,” another one laughed.
The girl pretended not to have heard anything.
He calmly processed the documents and began the service.
The problems started the very next day.
Serging in the unit was a young sergeant named Victor. Tall, very strong, and self-assured, he was used to being the leader among the soldiers. Many recruits were afraid of him, and some avoided crossing paths with him.
When Victor saw the new girl in the formation, he immediately decided to show her “her place”.
At first, they were just jokes.
— Are you lost? The girls’ dormitory is on the other side.
The soldiers laughed.
The girl didn’t react at all.
The next day, Victor looked for another opportunity.
— I heard you’re an athlete. What sport do you play? Chess?
Laughter erupted again all around.
But the girl remained calm.
The less he responded, the more he irritated the sergeant.
After several days, Victor was already looking for any reason to provoke her.
During lunch he said aloud:
— I don’t understand why they sent you here.
The girl calmly looked up.
— At your service.
“To serve?” the sergeant mocked. “First, try to endure the training.”
Some soldiers laughed again.
But the girl just shrugged and continued eating.
Every day the tension between them grew more.
And a week later, the event occurred that caused the conflict to explode completely.
During the morning cross-country run, several soldiers began to fall behind. The girl suddenly overtook almost the entire group and finished among the leaders.
Victor didn’t like that at all.
He was sure the newbie had simply gotten lucky.
And then he decided to publicly humiliate her.
In the afternoon, a large part of the company gathered in the gym.
Some trained with punching bags, others with weights, and Victor, along with his friends, practiced combat techniques.
At that moment the door opened.
The new girl entered the gym.
He was already wearing sportswear and headed to an open area to warm up.
Several soldiers immediately looked at each other.
“What are you doing here?” someone shouted.
“You’d better go clean my boots,” another one laughed.
The gym erupted in laughter. But the girl didn’t seem to hear them.
She calmly put down her bag and began to warm up.
That made Victor even angrier.
He approached.
— Do you really plan to train here?
– Yeah.
– Among us?
— What’s so strange about that?
The sergeant smiled.
— I just want to see how much you can take.
Soldiers began to gather around.
Everyone felt that something interesting was going to happen.
Victor took a step forward.
— Since you’ve come to train, show us what you can do.
The girl looked at him.
— What do you propose?
— A fight.
The gym was filled with noise.
— This will be fun.
— It’s over.
— It won’t last a minute.
The sergeant smiled.
— What’s wrong, are you scared?
But instead of answering, the girl suddenly reached into the pocket of her sports jacket. A second later, she pulled out something that left everyone completely shocked. 
You can find the continuation of this story in the first comment.
A second later he pulled out a small old photograph.
The soldiers looked at each other in surprise.
Victor frowned.
— What is this?
The girl handed him the photo. The sergeant took it in his hands. The smile immediately vanished from his face.
The photograph showed a famous military instructor of hand-to-hand combat. He was known to many military personnel in the country.
Next to him was a very young girl.
The same recruit.
Below was a dedication:
“To my best student. Keep winning.”
Several soldiers recognized the instructor’s last name and looked at each other in surprise.
— Wait… is that the legendary Alex Grom?
— The same one?
— The one who trained special forces?
A murmur of astonishment swept through the gymnasium.
But Victor quickly regained his confidence.
— So what? A photo doesn’t mean anything.
He threw the picture aside.
— We went up to the tatami.
Minutes later, almost the entire company surrounded the combat zone.
Everyone was waiting for the spectacle. The fight began.
Victor decided to finish it quickly.
He advanced confidently, trying to impose his strength.
But in a few seconds he realized that something was wrong.
The girl was moving too fast.
He calmly avoided attacks and made the sergeant constantly fail.
The soldiers began to look at each other in surprise.
A minute passed. Then another.
Victor clearly began to get tired.
Meanwhile, the girl remained completely calm.
Another attack ended with the sergeant losing his balance and falling to the ground.
The gym fell silent.
Victor got up quickly and attacked again.
But a few seconds later the same thing happened.
This time even more clearly.
The soldiers were no longer laughing.
They stared at the scene with their mouths agape.
When the sergeant fell to the ground for the third time, the commander who was watching from the side raised his hand.
— Enough.
Victor was breathing with difficulty.
There was total confusion on his face.
He looked at the girl.
— Who are you really?
The girl calmly adjusted her sleeve and replied:
— The one they’ve been ridiculing all week.
The gym fell silent.
And then someone started to applaud.
A second later, the others joined in.
