Hey old man, I was born in ‘62. Retired just in the last few months. I married a beautiful Filipina. The youngest of 9 children.
Her dad fought with the US Army during WWII. He was a teenager at the time.
One of the few to receive the US promise of citizenship for his efforts in that war. Her uncle, his brother, procrastinated and lost out when the US later reneged on this promise.
While her dad never made it to the USA his citizenship made our marriage and her eventual naturalization a very smooth process.
In those days marrying a foreign national was a paperwork hassle not easily overcome. Years of hassle and costs was eliminated because of her dad’s timely processing of required documents in the time immediately after WWII.
His brother’s procrastination cost him. As the USA later reneged upon that promise. Thousands of Filipino’s who were eligible for citizenship because of General MacArthur’s promise were later denied citizenship when the USA later reneged on that promise.
OLD MAN???? HMMMMM
I guess if the ‘foo Schiffs’ wear it or is that if the ‘shoe fits’ etc etc
Yes about the marriage(s) in ‘my day’ you had to be E5 or above to put in a chit to get married, the old saying was
IF UNCA SUGAH wanted you to have a wife she would have been in your seabag. (Notice - it was SHE)
About age, this current crop of LIB leaders has certainly put AGE relationships back like BO put RACE relationships back.
People see the 3 BEST candidates the LIBs have to offer and must figure once one reaches 70 he is little more than a bumbling idiot.
As great as PDJT is and may be, he is NOT ‘big enough’ to overcome the peoples perception that the 3 idjits will never be anything but complete IDIOTS.
Like we would say, Never find a MAJOR nativity scene in DC as one would have a rough time finding 3 wise men and 1 Virgin....
Merry Christmas and a Prosperous New Year to ALL....
