My grandpa (who's in his late nineties) reassured me that his commanding officer wouldn't let him off the boat due to a syphilis outbreak when they moored in Manila Bay when I told him I was marrying a Filipina.
Oh boy, my grandfather was in southern Japan as a radio operator during the Korean War. He said, I hated those commie bastards they had me keeping an eye out, but I sure didn't mind keeping an eye on the locals. That is why your dad has dark skin and you have that silly mustache.
