” - - they might become Haile Selassie.”

I actually was in the vicinity of Haile Selassie as a 19 year old. He was walking his dog on the other side of the street where I was at on a US Army post in Ethiopia. The post was called Kagnew Station located in Asmara which is now Eritrea.

This was where I learned what being poor really was, where all people owned is what they could carry on their backs and camels.
