"Charles was deployed to Iraq in 2005. He has a baby named Jordan waiting for him back home and begins keeping a journal, filled with memories, love and advice in case something happens to him. He mails it home to his fiancee, Dana. Shortly after, he is tragically killed in combat."
Excerpts from various websites, including "History vs Hollywood":
Dana Canedy, a Pulitzer Prize writer, wrote a memoir in 2008 entitled "A Journal for Jordan: A Story of Love and Honor." This 200-page journal was printed as "A Father's Legacy". The book caught the attention of actor Denzel Washington, who decided to make a film out of it, and direct it, entitled "A Journal for Jordan". The film was released December 25, 2022.
