When Sergiu Doloscan thought about the United States as a kid in Moldova, growing up behind the Iron Curtain, he pictured images from his favorite movie: “Terminator.”
Eventually the idea of a time traveling cyborg assassin was replaced with two other concepts: freedom and democracy.
“Those were things we didn’t have,” Doloscan, 37, said Thursday at Wrigley Field,where he became a United States citizen alongwith 655 other people from more than 90 other countries.
It was the largestnaturalization ceremony ever held by the Federal District Court in Northern Illinois.
“I feel very, very good today,” said Doloscan, a truck driver whocame to the United States six years ago.
