recruitment program, ‘infiltration’ feared James Rosen By James Rosen Published August 01, 2017 Fox News
NOW PLAYING VP Pence assures Eastern Europe's NATO partners Close EXCLUSIVE: Defense Department investigators have discovered “potential security risks” in a Pentagon program that has enrolled more than 10,000 foreign-born individuals into the U.S. armed forces since 2009, Fox News has learned exclusively, with sources on Capitol Hill and at the Pentagon expressing alarm over “foreign infiltration” and enrollees now unaccounted for.
After more than a year of investigation, the Pentagon’s inspector general recently issued a report – its contents still classified but its existence disclosed here for the first time – identifying serious problems with Military Accessions Vital to the National Interest (MAVNI), a DOD program that provides immigrants and non-immigrant aliens with an expedited path to citizenship in exchange for military service.
Defense Department officials said the program is still active but acknowledged that new applications have been suspended.
Created in the final weeks of the Bush-Cheney administration and launched under then-President Barack Obama, MAVNI was designed to recruit individuals with foreign-language and other skills the Pentagon deems useful and in short supply. The program has had many success stories – most notably the Army’s Soldier of the Year in 2012, Sgt. Saral Shrestha, originally of Nepal – and independent analyses have found MAVNI recruits out-perform non-MAVNI soldiers in critical areas.

Full title: Pentagon investigators find ‘security risks’ in government’s immigrant recruitment program, ‘infiltration’ feared
we’ve been doing this in one form or another for eons. Crafted some very loyal and amazing Americans.
We already have enough Chinese spies in this country working in sensitive job sectors, why even bother with recruiting them into our military?
“we’ve been doing this in one form or another for eons. Crafted some very loyal and amazing Americans.”
That said, we probably are doing it wrong now.
He’s dumb. But that’s not why he does evil things.

Am I fooling myself to think/hope that our government is monitoring these trained individuals for any collusion between their fellow fighters?
And if any are awol are we hunting them down and giving them a gravel production job?
Really!!?!
These pentgon idiots realized that recruiting illegals from narco-terrorist states and islamic jihadi shitholes where our military is currently deployed was a bad idea?
Another government bureaucracy in desperate need of a good purge-house cleaning-swamp draining.
Sounds like the NASA Muslim outreach program.
This sounds like free training to kill our troops.
Yes, many illegal immigrants in Vietnam when I was there. Mostly anti- Castro Hispanics. But also anti-Communist Eastern Europeans and Asians.
Back then the background checks were a total joke. I know. I saw many of them, including my own, which was a joke.
Personally, I was more worried about some of the natural born citizens who would do anything for booze.
Paging Mr. Obvious!
background checks are still a joke and besides the Chinese and whomever else have all of them.
Now Trump will ban them...a little liberal judge will block the order...and Trump will sit back down and do nothing.
NO CHIT SHERLOCK! Wonder how many fools it took to figure this out?

DUH!
The military’s job is to defend the country NOT TO GIVE CITIZENSHIP AWAY. Here’s how they should pay people: with cold hard cash - period.
If we’re fighting in countries that hate us so much they’ll kill people who help us then WE DON’T BELONG IN THAT PARTICULAR HELLHOLE.
Some hellholes are NOT worth the death of our citizens. Bring them home. AND YOU JERKS IN THE MILITARY - YOU DO NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO TRADE CITIZENSHIP FOR HELP... PAY IN CASH... IF THAT’S NOT GOOD ENOUGH GET OUT OF THE HELLHOLE.
PING!!!!

True.....until Bush and BOZO came along.
The investigators get today’s NSS (No S*** Sherlock) Award. It will be presented first light tomorrow by Capt Obvious.
