I stand in the Admiral's office and I am afraid to hear what he has to say. Normally, when he calls us back in the middle of a vacation it is something very important. He asks me to take a seat and then he let me know what we are going to do.
"One of our base camps has been attacked by the enemy and there is a lot of casualties. We are sorry to say that we have lost a lot of men over there and we need to go and rebuild that base. The threat is still very much alive over there and has not been immobilized. We are called to immobilize whatever the threat is at the base..."
I can not help but feel an instant feeling of despair in my heart because so many soldier's lives have been lost. I can only imagine how it would feel to lose my men in my team. I wish this feeling on no one. Then he continues.
