He slowly involves himself with a cluster of other Army kids on the base as well as some local Italian teens who all hang out at the beach and indulge themselves too much, and eventually becomes close to Caitlin as they both discover themselves over the golden summer. While everyone thinks he and Caitlin are a couple, he is actually missing his friend Mark back home and also developing an innocent romantic connection with an older soldier named Jason.
