ROMANIA-BOUND: The Panama intervention hasn’t boosted local military recruiting, said an Army spokesman in Santa Ana, but some Orange County youths said they’d go overseas to fight if needed. . . . At least eight young Romanian-Americans put their names on a Southern California list of those willing to fight in Bucharest. . . .
