Military Stories

In the rubble of Fallujah, Navy corpsman Gabriella Stoica is left for dead — six wounds, two rounds, and one unconscious officer whose life depends entirely on her.

It's four words her father wrote in a hospital bed in Germany, fourteen years before she was born. One breath at a time.

A little different take than most of my stories. Anyone who has ever served in the military has probably met someone like Master Gunnery Sergeant Samuel Obediah Lewis, Sr., USMC Retired, and his thoughts on names for his children. And even if you never served you may still know someone who obsesses over naming their children after entertainers or athletes. Hope you enjoy it.
