(7) a person born outside the geographical limits of the United States and its outlying possessions of parents one of w’hom is an alien, and the other a citizen of the United States who,

prior to the birth of such person, was physically present in the United States ‘ or its outlying possessions for a period or periods totaling not less ‘ than ten years, at least five of which were after attaining the age “ of fourteen years: Provided^ That any periods of honorable service in the Armed Forces of the United States by such citizen parent may be included in computing the physical presence requirements “ of this paragraph.

Pub. L. 82-414 § 301(a)(7) grants citizenship at birth by law, i.e. naturalization.
