Spread the word, Sister! I posted on this at a Mute Monday called "Patriots". It would be AWESOME to know the specifics of what Child did, but I couldn't find it. Seems she worked on the Personnel side of things and spent time in China and Vietnam and with French citizens living in those places. But that's about all I could find out.
