John Tyree was born in 1977 and grew up in Wilmington, North Carolina. In the first chapter he talks about how his dad and him are totally two different people. Unfortunately their relationship is not the best in the world, every time they try to have a conversation they end up arguing and never get to the point they want to get. When John grows up he realizes how he could have had a better relationship if he wanted to, it was just that he was a teenager and things weren't working out the was he wanted them to and peers also pressure him. He also describes how he was a player in high school and never took girls serious.
After high school he decided to join the military; he though that this would give him the confidence and make him a better person. His dad wrote him letters every once in a month saying how things had changed since he left.
