Hmmmm,
Sounds like a similar story to one over here, only this one was a twist.
This one is more of a cross between "An Officer and a Gentleman" and "Double
Happiness." The femain lead was not Chinese, she was a Southern lady, and
the male lead was a young officer candidate. He had a loud MG Midget (with
a weber! :->) and an even louder black '66 Mustang. The story had a similar
happy ending though, getting married towards the end of the Officer's Basic
Course and JUST TODAY (10 and a half half years later) we added Amelia Rose
to the family!!
Sid (documented as an Officer and a Gentleman)
