Defense Dept. Announces New Policies for Foreigners Entering U.S. Military
Washington Free Beacon ^ | 10/13/17

The Department of Defense announced new policies on Friday for foreigners who plan to enter the United States military.

The department's chief of accessions Stephanie Miller made the announcement, which concerns the Military Accessions Vital to National Interest (MAVNI) and green card holders. The new change puts increased security screenings on applicants who desire to eventually obtain American citizenship.

Miller said that the Department of Defense had to change the policy because some service members were receiving citizenship before they passed their security clearance. Some in the service currently who have received their characterization of service have now had theirs decertified while waiting on new ones.

Note illegal aliens can not serve in the military. The media stating that “Dreamers” are serving in the military is a lie.

There is a difference between “cannot” and “may not”.

It is illegal for illegal aliens to be enlisted.
The Kenyanesian Usurper told them to enlist them anyway.
A few are now serving.

Just one more reason why we should never allow another ineligible person to run.

Maybe it should also read: The Department of Defense announced new policies on Friday for those who plan to enter the United States Military Academy.

You may have forgotten some that Obama's people taught them as well;
1) Drop your pants
2) Bend over and hold to your ankles

The Pentagon on Friday announced that foreign-born troops seeking U.S. citizenship under a recently scrutinized military recruitment program must undergo new security screenings and complete longer enlistments.

Specialties required are mine clearing and de-fusing, IED (improvised explosive device) de-fusing, hazardous materials clearance, preference given to recruits with type O blood.
