Right now, the Pentagon is pushing US military members out the door, especially focused on those of officer’s rank, but also including lower ranked service personnel. Liberals have been working hard to transform the military
(RT) The Pentagon is to start recruiting undocumented immigrants who came into the US as minors and possess valuable skills like speaking Persian and Chinese. The program offering the opportunity is capped at 1,500 recruits per year.
The new policy revealed by the DoD on Thursday expands the existing pilot program called Military Accessions Vital to National Interest, or MAVNI. It has been tried since 2008, offering positions in the US armed forces to foreigners living in America legally as refugees or under a temporary visa.
Starting next fiscal year, MAVNI will also apply to illegal residents who came to US with their parents before age 16, reports the Military Times. The potential recruits would be selected from those eligible for the 2012 Obama administration policy known as Deferred Action for Child Arrivals, or DACA. Getting a DACA illegal immigrant status involves a background check by the Homeland Security Department.
The Pentagon recruits some 5,000 foreigners each year, most of them ‘green card’ holders. The MAVNI program may account for up to 1,500 recruits annually, although the military services are not required to accept them. In practice the Army has been the only service to accept a significant number, while the Navy and Marine Corps are not seeking applicants under it.
It’s “only” 1500 recruits a year. For now. 1500 who came here illegally and have no allegiance to this country.
So this program began under Bush but you blame liberals. ?
Only 10-20% of Americans now pass the minimum qualifications that the military sets for enlistment
This program is designed to attract recruits with certain language skill sets
Most Americans don’t want to enlist , remember. Over. 45 % of our soldiers who are deployed into combat now claim permanent disability
As far as cleaning out the officers 20% of the army are now officers we have all bosses no workers
Why would you say they have no allegiance to this country when they are about to do something that you a native born chose NOT to do, enlist in the military ?
Where’d you go? Everything ok?
