Danny's POV....

Yesterday a naval officer showed up at my door. He informed me that Jesse had been killed on the op. When I received the news, all I could do was cry. My wife, the mother to my children, the love of my life, was dead. It was so hard to have to tell Grace and Charlie and Steve and the others. The twins were too young to understand. Today is the day of the burial. They carried out the military procession. At the end when they folded up the flag, I heard a bark. A Huge German Shepherd came running up to her casket. 2 naval commanders chased after him. The dog was whining laying at the coffin. What was going on? After they lowered the casket into the ground, one of the naval officers aw up to me with the dog.

Officer: Are you Danny?

Me: Yes.

Officer: This was your wife's. She trained him and handled him in battle. Would you like to keep him or send him away?

I thought long and hard. This was the only thing of Jesse's I had to cherish. I accepted the dog as mine. As long as he was around, I would never, ever, forget my brave, kind wife, Jesse.
