Wow, I was unaware that this is possible; i.e. American & German citizenship for U.S. military dependents.

My brother Mike was also born on base in West Germany while we were stationed there. There was never a question of which country's citizenship he held. My understanding was that the Status Forces Agreement with Germany stipulates that a child born within marriage to a US service member is automatically a U.S. citizen, and is ineligible for German citizenship as German citizenship is was/still (as I understand it) based on German bloodline, not place of birth. I thought the U.S. reasoning behind this was that the child is born on sovereign U.S. soil, thus, is still eligible to become president.

Maybe my understanding isn't complete.

well I was told I was eligible for German citizenship. There wasnt ever any doubt for me either...

you are correct about the Presidency thing though. I am eligible, but not even close to willing.
