Storytelling Unit Workshop (Plamen and Lawrence)

Title:  In the navy

Computer Geek's backstory - Son of a "killed in action" sailor from the navy. Turned his back on social life and society as a whole.

Retired navel officer - A sad and lonely old man with a recently deceased wife. The deep sense of regret and redemption is the force behind his tragic backstory and his new goal of becoming a better person.

Story:  
A modern tale of bonding between two completely unlikely characters.
A retired navel officer uses his made-up need for learning basic computer skills as a pretext to interact with the son of a sailor who died tragically on the officer's last mission.

Character's names:  Thomas Dodge - the retired navel officer.
                                    Michael "Sgt. Storm" Graham - the computer geek

Opening scene:  The navel officer is angry at his recently bought computer.

Opening line: They say in that song "in the navy you can help your fellow men"... I must of been hearing a completely different tune.
