David Battle met Devon in eighth grade, and married her five years later.

Two months after the wedding, he was shipped off to war in Iraq.

Three months later, David's left hand was maimed when he came under attack in Fallujah.

He was transported to a hospital, where he began treatment.

The doctors told him they'd have to cut his wedding ring off in order to save his finger.

He said his wife is the love of his life, and he couldn't bear to see her ring destroyed.

They told him it was either the ring or the finger.

So he told them to cut his finger off, and leave the ring intact.

So they did. And David was happy.

But then the doctors lost his ring.

The End.
