Can't help but think that the Admiral, who knows she's SpecOps, wouldn't be openly talking about her work in PUBLIC period.

@Vipre-

Two biggest plot holes are that if they were allowed to know all that and attend promotion ceremonies after the Admiral let the cat out of the bag they could've known all that and attended ceremonies the entire time, and that an Admiral would be that careless with sensitive information in a public setting.

@jackwells8107

The most unbelievable thing about this is that they Navy would allow the Air Force to poach their students.
Hard to believe that the Admiral was familiar with full jacket, but still managed to spread classified information in public.
At least they didn't call the brother's naval commander a General like in the title.

The mother is always "eleanor" 😂

@Squidzilla69

This actually happened, and the high-ranking military member decided to put it on reddit 🤣. Yup.

@bryzcrochet

Sad that the family could not respect her no matter what her job was!

@jaykay1223

Samantha and Airforce?!? SG 1 Sam Carter?!?

@alvinthomas5393

OK, so she was recognized by a navy general? No such animal exists.

@mukithasan9684

This is the most believable story on the internet

@Cimarock66

This is so tragic!😢
Parents should be supportive of their children’s choices, so long as their child is happy with their choices and they’re self sufficient. These parents should have been supportive from the beginning, not just when the truth was revealed.🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

@tobennaokoli17

So if the Admiral received the signal not to expose her… why did he expose her?

@vensonfields7289

She should have told Dad to drop and give her 20.

@navykeef

Other officers had family at their award ceremonies but not her? 😂 so many inconsistencies. Awards are always unclassified, even if the things you did were classified.

@davidalan528

Either the family understands service and understands operational security and wouldn’t question the secrecy repeatedly or they don’t and would. 

But a flag officer breaking that operational security, even on base during a ceremony, seems highly unlikely with civilians present.

You know what might be unserious rn? WOPANG GANGNAM STYLE

@SlackerGirl121

If the brother recognized shrapnel wounds, why did he believe the car accident cover? There's a difference between a little car accident and shrapnel wounds.

@KimberlyDMcCallister

My heart Uncle spent 6 years in the Navy then decided to start from basic training instead of a transfer across to Air Force and worked his way up to a 4 Star General in the US Air Force. He survived pancreatic and colon  cancer while in service that was found while deployed overseas! 
After retirement, he worked with ROTC in under city kids in Los Angeles, California!!! Then, in 2010, he thought he had the stomach flu. Unfortunately, it was cancer. He was SO angry! He went for testing every 6 months! But, it was 1/4 inch higher than colonoscopies detected! It was too late. He passed 3 weeks later.

@oldstrawhat4193

What a sweet, touching story. I know these are fiction. But, well done.
