iraq marines military tragedy usmc war

Alexander Ichijou is a young man from California (of Japanese decent), in 2008, after graduating from high school, Alex enlisted in the United States Marine Corps only to be sent out to Iraq a few months later. While there, he meets a young man named Haru, a Marine sergeant who enlisted after 9/11. The two become best friends and have to face challenges while in Iraq. 

DISCLAIMER: Some characters in this story are not mine and come from other series (mostly Keroro Gunsou). I also (obviously) do not own the United States Marine Corps but I show much respect towards them and other military branches. This story may not be all that realistic and bad since it is my first story.

This story is in first person point of view

Bloody Space Expedition (Eng. ver.) by Zukuswaifu

!!!This story is fictitious, names of real people, groups and incidents are purely coincidental and not intentional!!! (i tried to make the cover look better) About the story (it will be a bit long, see why at the bottom): The story is about a boy named Satoru Takeyo, who initially goes to school like a normal child, but in the year 2185, when he turns 14, he has to go to a special military for space exploration, where he meets some new friends, but at the same time he has to go to mysterious planets, where he meets terrible and traumatizing creatures (or aliens)... (I'll explain EVERYTHING to you as the story progresses in case you didn't understand anything.) (I actually wanted to make a manga out of it, but then realized I can't draw after all 😅 and I know the cover photo sucks haha)

Mil SO (Military Significant Other) by CaylahWest

My chest hurt as an empty feeling rushed over me. My breathing picked up as I clutched my chest. It was painful but yet, oh so familiar. Black dots swam in my vision as my heart beat wildly. I closed my eyes and tried to calm my breathing. Panic attacks weren't uncommon for me. I'd had them ever since the accident. I felt the tears roll down my cheeks as my face heated. It was getting harder to breath. It felt like the walls were closing in around me, and the oxygen was being sucked out of the room. "Iris! Calm down. You have to calm down," a voice sounded from a distance. It was too late; I was in full panic attack mode. My body shook as I sobbed in gasps. I felt hands on my arms but barely. I was too far-gone. The black dots increased as my breathing did. I'd done this too many times to know what was coming next. I hyperventilated until I passed out completely. ~ After a traumatic event that led to her family's death, Iris moves with her Aunt to California to try and start over. Iris Morgan grew up a military brat. With her dad in the Marines, she grew accustomed to that lifestyle, until she was ripped from it. Now she has to be the new girl all over again. Only this time, she has to keep her PTSD in check as well as survive a high school full of teen celebrites, cute boys, and around the clock drama. All Iris has to do is survive two years until graduation, but what comes after graduation may prove to be more difficult than high school itself.

The New Commander - Girl's Frontline (Discontinued) by TheLunaticAngel

All right's go to their respective owner's. Alex Rose is a Division Agent, and C.I.A. When he was in the Army, he became the most decorated soldier in his platoon and became 2nd in command in it because of his Captain and within only 3 years of him being in the Military. Him and his Captain we're best friends and always we're there for each other when needed. He soon left the Army to live his life on a farm. But the C.I.A. came for him. The President of the United States wanted to see him. He complied, honoured. When he got to the White House, he met with The President. He offered him a job, to be one of his Agent's of The Homeland Division. He then took the Job immediately. For 3 next year's, he was the top Division Agent, everyone in the military new about him, but nothing about his files. They we're all classified because of The President since he was a high decorated soldier who can be easily targeted by anyone who took one look at the files. He commanded a small 4 team (including him) alone . . until that changes. The cover of this book does not belong to me, along with the characters of Girl's Frontline. Have fun reading! I'll try to make this book accurate to the game as possible . . there should be an anime of this game if there isn't already.

Sergeant John Rigen, who was doing a patrol at Virginia Beach with two of his marines suddenly wakes up in a strange forest. He sees himself alone, lost some of his memory, also lost his marines. The only thing he has was an M4, a military bag that contained new types of weapons... Note: Because there're so many complaints of the readers who said to me that they couldn't read my book because of bad grammar so from now on. I'll start to rewrite my novel from chapters 1 - 28 because I saw those chapters have the worst grammar, have done rewrote 10 chapters, 18 more to go! The chapters above those ones have been written better when I started changing the way I write. Anyway, I hope you guys enjoy reading my novel, sorry for the inconvenience that you have gone through while reading!
