This reminds me of Nathaniel Hawthorne in The Scarlet Letter: "Save the long-sought regards of woman, nothing is sweeter than these marks of childish preference, accorded spontaneously by a spiritual instinct, and therefore seeming to imply in us something truly worthy to be loved."
I can't think of anything better than for a battle-toughened, exposed-to-the-evils-of-human-nature soldier to have a sweet, innocent, artless, little daughter to love him so much.
