A Simple Salute - Comments

Omg I thought she was dying

One of my friends suggested this, and I needed to give it a shot. And I'm glad I did.

I didn't know what was going on for a while there - I thought she was actually dying. Like, she was sick or something, and they knew she only had two weeks left. So I was ready for an absolute tear-jerker. Even got the box of Kleenex beside me.

But your ending...was so much better than I expected. It was beautiful, and Matt's reaction was perfect. How he's happy and sad and proud and terrified all at once. Just beautiful. =)

Amazingly done. <3

Sorry this is so late. I know... But with everything going on and there has been A LOT! and I won't bore you with it all, but here is my comment for your contest entry =)

It was pretty good, although I can't say I cried like the others, lol. For me I was kind of confused. I thought she was like going to DIE DIE! Not like die in Iraq but I guess it is slowly making sense to me now. By the end of tomorrow i will understand, lol.
I should have the contest winners hopefully up by today =)

I cried at the end!! Your an amazing writer!!

......you wicked wicked person.....i was seriously crying at the end!

Very nicely written :) I liked the plot
Thanks for entering :) the winners will be posted soon :)

it was really great, and i agree with Chelsea's Dead Smile, i thought she was going to die, but i guess that may have been what you were aiming for.... lol
anyways, it was well written XD.

That's absolutely beautiful. You did a great job.

Yeah, when I was reading it I was getting all misty eyed 'cause I thought that she was dying because of a disease or something, and that's why they were careful around her, and why she hadn't seen the guys in ages.

Still sad though, but at least she didn't die

Wow.. I cried at the end.. Very touching story.. I'd kinda like to see what happens next :D

-is chocked up- At first I thought she was gunna die, but gah!
I read she's going to Iraq, and eeeeeeh!
-cries-

This is a really good one-shot:)
You could possibly make a story out of it.
