I was on the ship once again just doing the dishes like any other day , I talk to my friend who is the cook and tells me The Captain is recruiting 500 new soldiers for the SEAL teams . While I wait for the soldiers to finish their breakfast I try to find my brotheramongst the crowd. He was always better at everything I tried at , the navy , sports but not school , I was always better than him with academics. He was one of the best soldiers on the ship and I respected him for that although I never did respect that much just as he did with me.I go the Captain to ask if he was on board. "I'm sorry to tell you this but ... Sergeant Dean King , your brother died yesterday during a house raid." The Captain informs me.
I go to my quarters and just sit there and think of all the things he done. Then I realise he was walking right past me. I think maybe the captain got it wrong , I ask him. "Weren't you killed?" , It doesn't take long for me to realise it was someone else and as I do he yells at me I don't hear him. I just pass out ,when I awaken I realise he will be gone forever.
After a few weeks I get over my brothers death and I have to clean 257 dishes by hand as the Dishwasher broke just a few minutes ago. After about a hundred I give up and just sit there thinking of what happened to my brothers body and why there wasn't a funeral , I question my mind.
