An old Marine
Boobs in the Marines
SAUGUS, Calif. Mar 25, 2006 (AP)— Sonia Goldstein was flattered by the nice recruiting letter asking her to consider becoming one of "the few, the proud." But at age 78, she believes she's just a little old to enlist in the U.S. Marine Corps... The letter told her the corps could use her unique language skills, but also warned that life as a Marine would test her physical and mental abilities... "There I am with my walker. I can't maneuver from here to there without it," said Goldstein, who added that her only language is English. "I'll do whatever I could for this wonderful country we live in," she said. "But you know, this is kind of stretching it a bit."I don't know, maybe this wasn't a mistake. We're running out of troops, so I hear.
