    Summary

    They thought they knew Buck.

    The funny one. The reckless one. The golden retriever in turnout gear who ran into fires and fought with his heart on his sleeve.

    Then one phone call changed everything.

    Five moments when the 118 family uncover pieces of Buck’s past—his scars, his secrets, and the soldier buried beneath the surface—and the one time they watch him step back into that world, fully and without apology.

    Call sign: Smoke.

    Rank: Lieutenant Commander.

    And no matter what the Navy or the battlefield tried to take from him, he’s still the man they love.

    He’s not one or the other.

    He’s always been both.

    aka. A five times the 118 learned a little bit more about Buck's past as a Navy SEAL and the one time they see it in action
