My Most Unforgettable Character My most unforgettable character was Sandy Bailey. I met this boy when I was sent to military school. He always had his friends around him and his current girlfriend. He never changes his girlfriend. He just changed whether or not he was dating her or not. The funny thing is I never even got to know him in the short two years I was at military school. He was nice at times but kind of mean with a little abuse of power with his officer rank. He would make people drop for no reason or just tell people to do stuff that was unnecessary.

He was rushed to the hospital and we had an emergency meeting in the mess hall half an hour later. As we sat there waiting for the news the president walked up to the podium and said these exact words. ”Today I regret to inform you that Sandy Bailey passed away today at the hospital”. After that there was no formation, no line up, nothing. We all just walked back to our dorms by ourselves. And I slowly walked back last humming the soccer song in a low sad tone.
