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 two-year-old 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.”
