My saddest goodbye was also while I was in the Marines.
I was stationed in NC, and she was from California. We met while she was on a week long vacation to visit a friend of hers who was married to a Marine. She ended up extending her vacation an extra month. When I drove her to the airport I wasn't sure when or if I was ever going to see her again. We were both silent on the ride to the airport while we listened to Journey.
I did in fact see her again, and after the Marines I moved to California to live with her.
