Hey, Vicki, you might have forgotten this, but I haven't. I'd appreciate the courtesy of an answer to my point.
You were asked to source a citation for your claim that it was common for returning GIs from WWII to marry 13-year-olds. Either source the claim, or withdraw it. It's not very hard. Tell us where you learnt this.
Realize that you're slurring a bunch of guys with a very broad brush. You need to have some very good data, or you need to retract, and shut the fuck up.
