46. Both of my nephews were born abroad.

One was born in Japan. The other was born in Tripoli, but his parents were living in Greece at the time. My SIL went from Greece to Tripoli because the hospital there was better.

But, they were on American soil, I guess, since they were at military bases. Both parents were American citizens. My brother was in the Navy then.

Wonder if the one born in Japan could get dual citizenship if he wanted it.
