VA - Oliver North weds Fawn Hall, his secretary during Iran-contra scandal.

[sds71]

Two key figures in the Iran-Contra affair quietly married last month, nearly 40 years after the scandal rocked US politics and President Ronald Reagan’s administration.

Oliver North married his former secretary, Fawn Hall, on August 27 in Virginia, according to a copy of the marriage certificate obtained by CNN.

Reached by phone Tuesday morning, North declined to comment, apart from quoting a line famously delivered by Clark Gable’s character in “Gone with the Wind.”

“Frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn,” he told CNN.

She showed up at his wife's funeral???? They started "seeing" each other again from "connecting" at his wife's FUNERAL?? Geez; can we guess why none of his children were at the wedding? She couldn't even wait until the poor woman was BURIED???

This happens more often than you think! Men of that age are not eager to run their own households, and someone else might grab him! I have no love nor admiration for either of these people, but I do like this story.

The convicted felon and his accomplice, together again.

I'll always remember how he engineered the sale of US weapons to Iran while they were holding innocent Americans hostage. Swell guy.
