Sergeant First Class Brenth Gurpin was nervous. He had been through it all: no-knock raids in Iraqi neighborhoods, enhanced interrogation to get enemy locations from children in Syria, even calling airstrikes on birthday parties in Afghanistan. But today he was taking on a challenge he had no idea how to handle - Brenth was to be a bodyguard for the president in the Secret Service, and on the day of inauguration. He had been a fierce supporter of the president, who promised to Make America Great Again, and in the middle of the president's speech, couldn't contain the joy within, letting his eyes well up until tears slid down his cheeks while the president promised to build an Orphan Crusher at every ICE detention facility. In his periphery he noticed a woman looking in his direction and laughing. It was the president's wife. Brenth suddenly became embarrassed about making such an emotional first impression with her. Little did he know that it would be far from the only emotional moment he would share with the new first lady.
