Did American women marry British / French / other soldiers in WW2? What are some cases, if any?
American soldiers brought back war brides back from Japan and Germany in World War 2, South Korea during the Korean War, and Vietnam during the Vietnam War.
How come a lot of soldiers havenโt brought back or had relationships/flings with women in Iraq or Afghanistan?
Or am I sheltered?
Difference is, will she marry a Vietnamese man? Probably not, whereas wmaf happens on a scale that can only be described as an exodus...
I'm just curious as to whether this phenomenon repeated itself, or if it didn't, which factors prevented the reoccurrence.
This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 76%. (I'm a bot)
> Oxford, September 26, 2017 - Exposure to Agent Orange sprayed during the Vietnam War has been linked to increased levels of certain hormones in women and their breastfeeding children decades later, potentially putting them at higher risk of health problems, according to a new study in Science of the Total Environment.
> Previous research has shown a link between exposure to herbicides that contain chemicals called dioxins - such as Agent Orange - and prostate cancer in men.
> The new study, by researchers at Kanazawa University in Japan, reveals for the first time the impact of dioxin exposure on women and babies.
> "Dioxin hotspots in the South of Vietnam are of the most severely polluted regions in the world," said Prof. Teruhiko Kido, lead author of the study from Kanazawa University, Japan.
> "We know exposure to dioxins has an impact on our hormone levels, and we wanted to know if this was being passed through generations and potentially putting babies at risk in these areas."
> The scientists analyzed the level of dioxin in the mothers' breast milk, and tested non-invasive samples of saliva from the babies for levels of the hormone DHEA. The results showed a nearly three-fold increase in DHEA in babies from the dioxin hotspot compared to non-contaminated regions.
