Vet gets citizenship
We discussed Leland Davidson last month. He was the World War II vet who found out at the age of 95 that he wasn’t a legal US citizen. Well, that’s been rectified;
Wearing a plaid shirt with suspenders and blue jeans, Davidson sat in the front row Tuesday next to Irene, 89, his wife of 51 years.
Looking on were 28 family members spanning five generations.
Davidson said he didn’t feel any different after receiving his certificate. However, his daughter Rose Schoolcraft said the ceremony marked the end of a difficult, yearlong process filled with sometimes frustrating bureaucracy.
Welcome, Leland. Unlike many of us, you earned your citizenship.

What a country! We make a 95 year old veteran born to american parernts in canada go thru hoops to prove his american citizenship. Then, we have a president of questionable heritage who will not do nothing to prove his.
Earned his citizenship indeed. Yes, welcome Mr. Davidson!
Some politician missed an excellent opportunity to throw the man a party. Welcome and thanks for your service.
