Wow. That is horrible.

Wow. That is horrible.

Horrible that it’s a fact, but well written.
My real, biological father was in the navy too.

So your father wasn’t really dead…
and you were conceived in love (or perhaps passion)… it’s a hell of a story. Very understated, ambivalent delivery in the writing – makes it impossible to tell how you actually felt about it, or what it did or didn’t mean to you. Although the title suggests a degree of disgust on your part, the story doesn’t really convey it – I get more of a sense of ambivalence.
