215 A Sample of DNA DNA試樣
Out of the Navy and ready to buy my own home, I filled out the veterans loan forms and mailed them away. But what I didn't realize was that I had placed the forms in the envelope containing a lock of hair from my son's first haircut. Two weeks later I received this note: “Enclosed is your loan certificate. Regardless of what you were told, we really don't need a sample of your DNA.”
我離開了海軍,準(zhǔn)備買自己的房子,就填了一份老兵貸款申請表寄了去。但是,我沒有注意到我用的這個(gè)信封里裝有一縷我兒子第一次剪下來的頭發(fā)。兩個(gè)星期以后,我收到一份通知:“隨信附上你的貸款證書。不論別人怎樣告訴你,我們實(shí)在不需要你的DNA試樣。”
