Their love story is sweet and passionate but is cut short when John is deployed back to Iraq. The couple exchanges letters, but the distance and time apart take a toll on their relationship. When John finally returns home, he finds out that Savannah has moved on, and their love story reaches a heartbreaking end.
Dear John is a poignant portrayal of the sacrifices that soldiers and their loved ones go through during times of war.
