Chapter:2 Leaving

Ryan's POV

I woke up that morning, took a shower and said one lasts goodbye to this place. I grabbed my wallet and my tags, walking downstairs i saw that my dad was waiting for me. we got in the car and he drove me to the airport.

"Son, it's not your fault your mom died" my dad said

"Yes it is, if i had done what you guys told me to then she would be here" i said

"You can t blame yourself for that, if she hadn't of jumped on that grenade, you would of died along with our some fellow marine's" he said to me "If it were up to me she would have received The Medal of Honor, if anything it's my fault i never should of brought you guys into this"

We were silent for the rest of the ride. The airport was just a few minutes away, to my self i did a mental checklist Concerta, Permit papers for the knife, tags, family photo check. We got out of the car, i grabbed a luggage cart and started loading my bags. As we walked inside, i realized that my dad was right, it wasn't my fault she chose to save me her last words were true she did love me.

Yes Ryan is still upset about his mothers death but he's not blaming himself anymore.

"Ryan" my dad stopped

"Yes dad?" i asked

"Here" he said giving me his and mom's spare dog tags.

"Thanks dad" i said putting them on my tag chain

I then took off my spare tag and gave it to him.

"Now where ever we are, we are a family" He said putting mine and mom's spare tag on his chain.

"FLIGHT 29 FOR FRANCE HAS ARRIVED AND WILL BE DEPARTING IN AN HOUR" Said the Air Marshal over the intercom.

We got my luggage on the plane and went to the waiting area. As we walked in someone started clapping then another and another pretty soon it was a thunderous applause. I looked up and saw everyone from the school and the base (the one's off duty at the moment) clapping for me and my dad.

"What's this?" my dad asked

"We honor your sacrifice and your bravery" said a voice i recognized

I turned and saw the Base Commander walking up

"It takes a big man to send his kid away for there safety, and a even bigger man to leave his parents" He said

"Joe why are you doing this?" my dad asked

"One Tina was a damn good solider we should honor her son who will be going away for who knows how long" said Joe "And two me and your squadron wanted to see him off, looks like someone through leaked the info, and three Gunnery sergeant Miller congratulations, I'm not promoting you over your wife's death that would be disrespectful, i was going to promote you that night while we were at the party for the marine's returning home"

My dad was surprised over this promotion Joe handed him his new stripes if he had any thing to say he kept his mouth shut. We had a small going away party i received a English to french dictionary, a learn french in day Downloadable app. I already knew french because my grandmother only spoke it so my mom had taught me when ever we went go go see here but it couldn't hurt to practice. The pilot and the Air Marshal came down to see what all the commotion was about. They recognized me from The Stars and Stripes newspaper, they offered me there condolences and told me that is was time to go.

Saying goodbye was the hardest part, walking on the plane realizing i probably would never see these guys again it got me a bit emotional

"Ryan i want you to know we will always be a family no matter what, your mom would be proud of you" said my dad

"If you ever need to talk to anyone were all here for you, the marines will always be your extended family, Semper Fi my friend" said Joe

I started for the terminal.

"HOORAH" yelled my dad's squadron

"SEMPER FIDELIS" i yelled back

They saluted me and i saluted back, this is my family no matter what goodbye mom I'll never forget you, I went on the and plane and found my seat "first class really Joe" i said to my self. I sat down and waited ten minutes before they had lifted off. As we got to cruising altitude I heard something come up behind us i looked out the window and saw my mom's F-16 Squadron escorting our plane to the border, i saw what was printed on the side of one of the planes, "Good luck Ryan" they escorted us all the way to the border it was a good time i turned on my I-pod and put on the french app. This is it i tought
