Daton took one look at General Wheyborn and knew his worst fears were about to come true. He pasted on a smile and saluted.
"It's good to see you Daton. How is the wife?"
"Good. She's settling back in very nicely."
"Good. And how are you?"
"I'm great. I have my wife back and she's due in three months. It's a girl."
"Congratulations. Have a name picked out?"
"Teigan Evi Farefall."
General Wheyborn smiled. He stood up and came around his desk. He wanted to deliver this news up close and personal.
"The reason wanted to see you was to let you know you will no longer be on desk duty. You are wanted in the field. You leave in two weeks."
"Yes sir. Can I ask for how long and where?"
"Afghanistan. You'll be there for two years. Your four year contract is up after that."
Daton had forgotten about that. He could leave the army, get a civilian job, and never have to leave his family again.
"You have a lot to think about. Report to base at noon two weeks from today."
Daton shook his hand, saluted, and left. Now he had to give Chivalry the bad news.
