Wilson Grad Conn wasn’t going to let his dating inexperience become a liability when he started seeing Rachel Lyn Honig in the fall of 2019. Rookie mistakes, he knew, were unavoidable. But at 55, he felt he had the life skills to get himself up to speed quickly, and that he had met a woman who merited the effort. “When I found Rachel, I knew she was right for me,” he said.

The pledges could unlock a wave of additional aid ahead of an expected escalation of fighting in the spring. It could take a year or more for 31 American M1 Abrams tanks to reach the battlefield. But the U.S. promise did clear the way for Germany to commit to sending 14 of its Leopard 2 tanks , which could arrive in several months.
