I was doing some investigating into military overspending when I came across something of an unusual nature. I found several military personnel records that just stopped. These people were not listed as missing, or dead. Their records just stopped. I had managed to locate thirty of the records and was starting to cross-reference information from them when I noticed something. One of the records just disappeared out of the system. I suddenly only had twenty nine of them. The only data I had retained from the missing record was the file number and the planet of induction. That missing soldier came from here.” I felt the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. I was pretty sure who the object of her search was. “It sounds to me like you found a computer glitch in the system. Did you contact the military records division?” “Yes, they gave me the run around.

I saw the message light on the communications panel and moved to touch the button. “Hey, Uncle Drake. We are all missing you around here. I wanted to ask you a question but I don’t want to leave it on a message system. Call me when you have time,” Cleo’s voice said from the panel. She was the oldest of Bobby and Asta’s children and the only female. She had been the first child to ever call me her uncle. She had been the one to draw me into the family. I undressed and slipped into the bed. I would return her call while traveling tomorrow. I was tired as hell right now. My eyes closed and I was asleep before the lights of the room dimmed completely. ********* “Sergeant Drake Daemon reporting for duty, sir,” I said, with a crisp salute, as I entered the general’s office.
