Tolbane Retires

MGySgt. Travis Tolbane, retired United States Marine Corps, started his thirty–year Marine Corps career in Parris Island, South Carolina, as most marines did. He worked hard, earned respect from all, and earned his promotions, some meritorious. While serving in Viet Nam, he became trusted by the Corps and was involved in several hush–hush, covert operations. Working with a Naval Investigative Service (NIS) agent, the beautiful Vietnamese lady Phuoc, in secret operations, they encountered many dangers and hardships together, overcoming each one.He saved her life on two occasions but not on the third on a compromised operation. He and Phuoc had been lovers from the beginning of their relationship. The betrayal tore into his very heart and soul. "Vengeance is mine," said Travis Tolbane.But would he have his vengeance?
