When a bitter war-veteran befriends a rough sixteen-year-old girl they discover a common sense of hopelessness, however, when she becomes indebted to a sleazy drug dealer, he must rediscover the war-hero within to save her.
Agreed with DPG. It reads similar to Taxi Driver, not sure if that was intentional or not but it does. Her becoming indebted sounds like the inciting incident if so you could restructure the logline so it starts with that.

I find that her story is more interesting than his – how she ended up on the streets, how she got mixed up in drugs and how she will pull herself out of that life, these all make her story rather interesting.

Agreed with Foxtrot25. There are too many moving parts in this one concept, and most of them seem unrelated to each other. It also reads as if the threat to her and the baby is what really motivates her to take action, why not start the logline with that as the inciting incident?
