Fearless
A dedication to the life of Janet Frazier
As she walks slowly up the ramp towards the podium she grows increasingly nervous. She loved the speech that she had been given and had a greater love and friendship towards the man whom had given it to her. It didn't depict the numerous achievements that she was rewarded. No. That would had felt cheap. The speech was about who she was, what her life was about. It let people know who her friend was.
The short walk towards the podium felt like miles, and she fights down the urge to cry. Once she reaches her destination she turns towards her comrades, her brothers and sisters in arms, her friends, her…no their family and starts to speak.
The speech was elegant in its simplicity. Major Samantha Carter begun with a name, her name, describing not those whom had died but those that were saved by such a courageous soul. That was who Dr. (Major) Janet Frasier was. Unwavering in her dedication to duty and her fearlessness in the face of danger. A hole is left in the hearts of all of those she had known and loved her.
