Journal Entry #645

June 16th, 1968

I did not think my day would turn out like this.

My unit and I were ordered to reinforce security at Andrews Air Force Base for the diplomatic summit with aliens of all things-ALIENS!

And that wasn't the best part.

It turns out that with one notable exception that the entire personnel aboard the spacecraft were human!

Our astronauts made contact with a civilization calling themselves the 'Galactic Republic' and it turns out that the most common race in the galaxy are humans.

I don't know how its possible but I do know one thing.

There is this redhead that I saw that walked out of the starship following the feline representative and man, she is gorgeous!

Her hair is pure copper and her body is perfect. Even her eyes are amazing! Those eyes are a sparkling green and they suit her!

I must be crazy if I'm suddenly starting to have an attraction to an extraterrestrial human.

I honestly don't know what to do, but something is telling me that she is the one when she notices me.

Am I dreaming?

Dear Mom,

You are in for a surprise.

If you been watching the news, I believe you know what's going on in the world right now and as such, I found someone.

To clarify, I met this wonderful woman who...is a part of the diplomatic party and is a corporal in the Republic Army.

Listen Ma. She is a sweet, kind, and courteous girl who is currently fighting against this Sith Empire.

Shocking. I know. I don't know why the Republic allow women to fight on the front lines, but I guess they're either desperate or it's their culture. I think its the former since its a possible explanation of why they are on Earth but I'll ask her.

I'll see if somehow I could have her visit the farm, but there are no promises.

Regardless, her name is Sara and she comes from a planet known as Corellia to the Republic. The Republic is basically like the United States, with planets instead of states.

I honestly didn't listen to how many planets form the Republic because I was...Distracted. She was there inside the building as this futuristic device showed their territory on a map and I just couldn't concentrate.

I don't know everything about her yet, but I do know something.

I'm forming a relationship with an extraordinary woman.

Love,

Jake.

Dear Jake,

I'm so happy for you sweetie. I truly am surprised that you finally found someone special to you.

And she had fought on the frontlines? Even during the Second World War, the Army was reluctant to form the Women's Army Corps and many factories would have rather close down than allow us Rosies to work. I could never see myself fighting against Hitler and his brutes, so it's strange to hear of a nation that allow women to fight.

Personally, I'm highly satisfied with my role right now.

And I still wish that my letters reached you during the last few months of Vietnam Jake, but I suppose that the way it is as sometimes your father didn't receive any letters from me at all either.

And if she is allowed to visit, just know that there is always a piece of cheesecake available.

XOXO,

Mom.

I had another interesting day with an extraordinary woman.

Earlier this morning, Sara and I got into a debate over which gun is more accurate: Her lasergun and my Model 70.

Surprisingly, the match ended in a tie and after cleaning up the rifles, we headed inside.

I decided to take a shower and was about to get in when I saw Sara outside the door getting undressed.

I was stunned as I saw her do this right before my eyes, but she literally made the next move by kissing me, and lead me to the hot water.

Needless to say, I enjoyed every moment I spent with her, and we later decide to watch a John Wayne movie.

It truly was an experience.

Hey babe,

I just want to let you know that everything is okay and I was assisting dad with picking the apples.

Mom is still making the apple butter as I speak for the local farmer's market that is coming up and she misses you already!

Can you believe that!? If ma misses you, that's a good sign for the future and I wouldn't be surprised if she's going to make more cheesecake than usual the next time you stop by.

So anyway, what's new regarding the current war?

I don't know all the details nor this Force nonsense but if you don't want to write about it, I understand. Just be careful.

I love you babe and I'll see you soon.

Sincerely,

Jake.
