  He went to the Naval Academy. He was the best of his batch. He showed higher intelligence and skills of a great leader. He showed he was a good athlete.

  He then went to Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL school and passed a 24-week course with an “A” rating and then passed a 26 week SEAL qualification program. He was under a six month Special Operations Tactical course. After that, he was in his team for an 18-month training program.

   Adam showed remarkable feats of intelligence and leadership. He was part of some special operations and he did extraordinary efforts to complete all his missions.

    His team was once sent to a very important mission. A ship was attacked by some pirates and they were demanding money to leave the ship. The ship was actually carrying military assets and they were part of a secret mission. The government placed them in a private ship so they won’t get noticed. Unfortunately, the ship got attacked and now the assets were in danger. Pirates didn’t know about the assets but if they get to know what is on the ship, it will be dangerous. There were a lot of military secrets and information about troops in Afghanistan and Iraq.

   A team of six soldiers was sent to rescue the ship. Adam was part of this team. They were given the mission to secure the ship.

   There were thirty to thirty-five pirates on the ship. SEAL team went to the ship in a boat and kept a safe distance from the ship. They dived underwater and went to the ship. They entered inside the ship from the backside of the ship. They then divided into three teams with two soldiers in each team. Adam and his partner went to the lower deck to secure the place and the other two teams went to secure the captain’s cabin and the engine room. Soon firing started and all the members of his team were killed. Adam was only one remaining. Adam lost communication with the base and now it was up to him t save the ship.

    Pirates threw dead bodies of the dead soldiers in the water and they were searching the ship and looking for any soldier who was left alive. Adam then one by one killed all remaining pirates and secured the ship. Adam was awarded the medal for Honor for his bravery and act of valor.

   Adam once got captured by terrorists in Afghanistan. He was part of a military convoy that got ambushed by terrorists. He was able to escape with his three team members. He was running through the village with his team members when terrorists caught up to them. Terrorists were firing at them. One of them threw a grenade and that went inside a house. There was a small child in the house. In efforts to save the kid, Adam got injured and he was captured by the terrorists.

   He was taken to their headquarters. His eyes were covered the whole time. They kept him in the room. After two days, he heard them saying that they are going to kill him and record it to send a message to the army of the United States of America. Adam was thinking about Sara. He had to get back to her.  He was going to marry Sara he was going to return to the United States.

   His hands were tied with ropes and his eyes were covered. He was somehow managed to free his hands. He took the cloth off from his eyes. Now he was thinking about what to do.

  The door of the room he was tied in was not locked. He opened the door a little to see outside. There was only one guard outside the room and it was like a corridor. Adam grabbed the guard from the back and covered his mouth and then snapped his neck. He then went into the corridor. There was another door in the corridor. Adam took the guard’s weapon and went inside the other room. The room was full of weapons and there were also some bombs inside the room. He saw a time bomb and set a timer of twenty minutes. He then left the room and went through the corridor. All the terrorists were gathered in a room and he was able to hear their voices. Someone was preaching them about something but he was not able to understand their language. He looked inside the room through a hole. Adam saw a face and he quickly recognized it. He was the most wanted commander of the terrorists. He was looking inside the room, when he felt something on the back of his head when he looked it was a guard and he was pressing his Ak-47 on the back of Adam’s head. Adam surrendered his weapon and raised his hands. Guard told him to walk. Adam slowly started to walk in front of the guard.

   Adam turned quickly and grabbed the guard’s g*n and before he was able to do anything. Adam hit the back of the g*n on his neck and the guard fell on the ground. Adam moved from there and went to the main door. There was only one guard on the door. Adam slowly went near him and broke his neck. Adam looked outside from the door. There was no one outside. Their headquarter was in the mountains.

  Adam came outside. Adam ran towards one side. When he was at a secure distance from the headquarters of the terrorists he hid behind a rock. He was waiting for the firework. After five minutes the Earth shook with a very powerful blast and the headquarters of terrorists turned into dust.

  Adam somehow contacted the USA army and he was then brought back to the United States. When he returned, he was informed that Wang Li died due to a heart attack. Sara told Adam that, ‘the day they got the news Wang cried and the next day when she came he was in his bed. She tried to wake him up but he was dead.’ Adam was crying. Tears were running down his cheeks. Sara hugged him and tried to calm him down. Wang Li was like his father. Adam was feeling like he has lost his world.

     Sara took Adam to Wang’s grave. Adam sat there silently, looking at his tombstone. There was an emptiness inside his eyes. He sat there for hours. He didn’t speak nor did he cry. He was just looking at his name on the tombstone.

     After some days Sara moved into Adam’s house. After six months of Wang’s death, Adam married Sara. Adam left the navy and started training kids in the Gym. This way he was able to remember and pass on Wang’s legacy.
