If a countrys worth living in. its worth fighting for." A little over a year later. 2 weeks after his 20th birthday. Scotty was killed in the Quang Nam Province of Vietnam. He died before achieving his dream of becoming a naturalized citizen of this country. It is my understanding that the residency requirements for foreigners to become U.S. citizens is waived for aliens who serve in the Armed Forces during wartime. Upon discharge. they are routinely granted citizenship. Because Scotty died on the battlefield before his discharge. he remains a noncitizen. His parents are now American citizens. So are his brother and sister.
