Army Bases Wedding Rules In Germany
In Heidelberg Germany the U S Army Navy and Air Force will end hard rules on marrying German women. Since postwar years over 25 000 German brides have joined U S servicemen and marriages now run about 5000 yearly. The changes take effect Nov 15 allowing marriage after eight months on assignment and immediate remarriage after approval. Civilian workers receive the same policy. Welfare officials link long rules to illegitimacy in many births.
