I believe it is that the US doesn't recognize dual....if you hold American citizenship your an American. But that doesn't prevent having citizenship somewhere else as well.
I didn't think Americans could hold dual citizenship.
The United States does not recognize dual citizenship for its citizens. Other countries do. Most of the commonwealth countries allow you to be a dual citizen. So as a born Canuck who became a naturalized American citizen, I get to retain my Canadian citizenship with no expectation of renouncement. Going the other way, American citizens born in the USA would have to renounce their citizenship should they want to become a citizen of another country.

Interesting. Not sure she'll go for that, although if it came down to a choice I suspect she'd take CND. She gets hounded by the IRS every year to file on Canadian income.

Not completely true. Not sure why or how it works, but I was born in the US and am a dual citizen.
My parents were Canadians who became US citizens, had 3 US born kids and moved back to Canada where we all became naturalized Canadian citizens who still hold US citizenship.
Might have more to do with having Canadian parents though.

I thought I heard there was a cutoff date if you were born up to a certain period? Late 70's or something.

Well my youngest brother is '91.
Not sure what it is, but it was always explained to me the other way around. IE, if you had a foreign citizenship, you had to give it up to become American. But if you were American, you can get citizenship anywhere else because other nations don't care how many citizenships you have.
But then that would mean my parents weren't able to become dual citizens, but this was all a long time ago so rules have probably changed.

Yes, your parents being Canadian had everything to do with that. You had the option of having citizenship based on their citizenship, and they had until your 18th birthday to make that decision. I see no reason why a parent wouldn't give their child the freedom of having both. There is no downside to having Canadian citizenship that I can think of. Like I said, its a nice get-out-of-jail card if things go crazy. A Canadian passport is almost universally welcomed while an American passport can gain some derision and undue scrutiny in parts of the world.
Even as the U.S. military takes on a greater role in the warfare in Iraq and Syria, the Trump administration has stopped disclosing significant information about the size and nature of the U.S. commitment, including the number of U.S. troops deployed in either country.
Earlier this month, the Pentagon quietly dispatched 400 Marines to northern Syria to operate artillery in support of Syrian militias that are cooperating in the fight against Islamic State, according to U.S. officials. That was the first use of U.S. Marines in that country since its long civil war began.
In Iraq, nearly 300 Army paratroopers were deployed recently to help the Iraqi military in their six-month assault on the city of Mosul, according to U.S. officials.
Neither of those deployments was announced once they had been made, a departure from the practice of the Obama administration, which announced nearly all conventional force deployments.
The decision appears to be making good on Trump’s promise as a candidate to insist on more of an “element of surprise” in battle tactics.
“In order to maintain tactical surprise, ensure operational security and force protection, the coalition will not routinely announce or confirm information about the capabilities, force numbers, locations, or movement of forces in or out of Iraq and Syria,” said Eric Pahon, a Pentagon spokesman.
