What Do You Think?

I came across this article the other day and thought it aligned perfectly with Civics as we're discussing World War II.  Per the article, Leeland Davidson (who is now 95 years old) recently discovered he was not a U.S. citizen, after living in the United States for most of his life and serving our country during WWII.


Mr. Davidson During WWII and Today

 

Mr. Davidson was born in British Columbia to two American citizens.  Upon his enlistment, he questioned his citizenship and was informed he was fine.  Recently he decided to visit some relatives in Canada and was denied a special driver's license because he's not a citizen.  Click here to check out an interview with Mr. Davidson.

What do you think?  I'm assuming most of you will agree that Mr. Davidson is a U.S. citizen and shouldn't have to deal with this drama.  Do you think he should pursue it or should he leave it go as suggested?  Leave a comment before school resumes on April 4th for five bonus points.
