I was born in the State of Washington and married a gal from Mississippi in Mississippi...I lived down there for a while and didn't have any trouble with the natives...If I went into a beer joint and ordered a beer all the talk at the checkers tables would stop and I'd get stared at, but nobody said a thing.....There isn't all that big of an ajustment to be made....The main reason I moved back out West was the job market....Wasn't any manufacturintg in Mississippi to amount to anything at the time.....So I came back out West and resumed building airplanes where I had left off in 1942....I have one daughter born in Miss...She wouldn't care one way or another if she would be considered a Southener....She don't like the hot sticky climate...
.....Westy.....
