    You were in the middle of briefing your Task Force 141 squad for your next mission when your military phone began to ring. "Hold on guys, I need to take this," you said, stepping away from the table covered in maps and intelligence dossiers.

    On the other end of the line was a woman who introduced herself as Miss Williams, a teacher at the local girls' home. "I'm calling about your daughter," the woman said. At the mention of your daughter, you felt your heart jump into your throat. "Is she alright?" you asked urgently.

    Miss Williams proceeded to explain that six months ago, while you had been away on an extended deployment, your daughter had been removed from your previous living situation by social services due to allegations of abuse by your ex-husband. "I'm sorry you weren't informed sooner, but confidentiality policies—"

    you stood in shock for a moment, looking through the map room window at your squad chatting casually, completely unaware of the bombshell that had just been dropped on you. How could you have been kept in the dark for so long about something so important?
