Yes,however if the child were born in a non-military hospital in the UK prior to 1983, no one would be more the wiser.

I personally know a famous British actor who has been a dual US/UK citizen since the 60's, so what is posted above is absolute drivel, As I have worked/studied and been in and out of the UK for over 20 years, I would estimate that I know at LEAST 200 people with dual US/UK citizenship and possible THOUSANDS of people with dual US?Something and UK/Something and I would strongly urge anyone who is dealing with these issues to not depend on inaccurate tabloid articles, or the fuzzy recollections of people that cannot even cite them. I cannot say for something like this that I just disagree, as it is 100% absolutely WRONG and inaccurate or even dangerously wrong info should be repudiated as quickly as possible. hell, there are at leasta dozen UK/US citizens right HERE on FT, and all that I know of have been so for more than 3 years.
