SFC William Farrell
LTC (Join to see) When my twin brother and I joined the Army at 17 in 1969, my father signed the papers. They weren't legally divorced and my Dad, a WWII vet didn't have custody so my mother needed to sign the papers. We knew she wouldn't sign the papers and told us so. We just lied to the recruiter and told them we hadn't seen our mother in years and have no idea where she lived. We signed some sort of affidavit attesting to that!
