Not only does his dad put his job first since, mother uproots him from Iowa by moving in with her ma so she can take a job in California. When Jared's class writes letters to US troops in Bosnia from the nearest base, kindhearted Sergeant First Class Vince Carerra, who grew up fatherless and got divorced because his wife wasn't faithful while he was on tour of duty, takes to the kid and starts a correspondence with 'fatherly' advice. Once his unit returns to Fort Sebastian, Vince calls on Jared's home, warmly welcomed.

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

Both newly divorced Lori Loughlin and her small son Charles Henry Wyner are moving west to live with grandmother Stefanie Powers who looks mighty good for a grandma. Both have some adjusting to do, Loughlin at a new job and Wyner with a new school and no friends. But a teacher's assignement to write to a soldier whose unit is headquartered at nearby Fort Sebastian, but whose unit is on peacekeeping duty in Kosovo starts a nice change of events. The soldier is Sgt. Johnny Messner who's had his own relationship problems, but the unit is recalled back to their base at Fort Sebastian and this gives Messner a chance to meet the family of his young pen pal.As this is a Hallmark romance movie, need I say more? Both Loughlin and Messner have a lot to work through, but they are getting all kinds of encouragement from everyone around them.This one's a winner from Hallmark.

How I wish to have part 2 of this movie. It's a Great Movie.it was really amazing story make me fall in love and is very touching. the boy same with my Kids to if I feel sad they are the one who really sad too. I relate so much. The story line was great and the acting was so natural. It was great to see a story that had no cursing, no violence, no sex, no police, no crime - just a genuine story of love, caring, and affection between people. I certainly hope the writer is working on the second part of this movie because there certainly should be a follow-up to the story. It also helped me to appreciate the sacrifices of our military families.

A great movie - plot moves along well, positive portrait of a real dad, enough romance without the sexual junk. Clean, family oriented, my whole family (wife, kids, in-laws) loves it. The actors and actresses are wonderful. Would have liked to see: - Chapel scene - the plot talks a lot about God, yet there is no scene depicting worship, I think a simple chapel scene would have been a great way to build the spiritual commitment to each other. - Family Support Group scene - the military is very good at welcoming in the new family members, especially those new to the military and pairing them with other women to support one another during deployments.Other than that this is one of those movies we will end up buying and watching many times. No cursing, no sex, no violence, just a plain, simple yet moving - movie. This is what film making is all about!!!!
