War Weddings . . .
Marry In Haste
During the war between 75,000
and 100,000 American soldiers
wed foreign women in the Euro
pean Theater of Operations. By
now at least 12,000 of these war
time weddings have been broken
up.
That is the estimate of D. G.

gration Service, back in the United
States after a survey of the prob
lem in the United Kingdom and
Europe.
In most cases, he said, the GI
brides were simply abandoned.
“The soldier goes home, and
that’s the last his wife in Europe
ever hears of him,” Mastrude said.
“We discovered that a great many
soldiers gave false addresses in
America. Countless marr1 ages
were bigamous, the man already
having a wife in the U. S.”
From the standpoint of the wo
man, international agreements on
divorce laws are unfortunate. It is
possible for an American to di
vorce a foreign wife without noti
fy ng her.
v great many women abroad,
said Mastrude, do not know they
have been divorced.
Mot all marital mixups, of
course, are the man’s fault. Wil
liam F. Globaker. 20, of Cleveland,
was informed his bride of two
months was held by Dallas police
v. ho said she confessed a share in
a $700 restaurant robbery.
