I was deejaying at a restaurant when Judith came to meet me for the first time. We were finally able to put faces to the voices we had been hearing on the radio, and I asked her out on our first date. She met me at the radio station and we drove to IHOP, where we laughed and talked all night. I loved everything about her, but especially her smile. I knew at that point that I didn’t want any other woman; she was it for me. We dated for a while and then I moved in with her. We did everything together. When I was on the air, she was my silent co-host, always by my side. We got married in 2001.
After I moved in with Judith, I met another Jamaican guy on the base and we became friendly.

.....I think the point is we give far worse pond scum second, third and forth chances that are not veterans.
Even if the guy delivered a box of grass knowingly, he has done more time than many murderers, rapists and child molesters.
Because he is a veteran, if for no other reason, he deserves a second chance.
I think his worst act is calling for 2 million already deported people to clog up the courts, trying to conflate his story with all 2 million of them.
Agreed.
If he was on Active Duty, did not do the paperwork for citizenship, then ETS’d without becoming a citizen, then his current status is HIS fault, not ours.
I must have missed that part. Where did the article say that he was in this country illegally or that he entered this country illegally? What I read said he entered this country at age 17 with his family. It also stated that his mother still lives here. Many immigrants come into this country legally every year.
Now, I have no way of knowing if everything (or even anything) stated in this story is true, or if he left pertinent information out. I can only go by what is written, and nowhere did I see that he was here illegally.
Nor did I see that he was on the base after he was no longer in the service. He could have lived off base with his girlfriend while commuting to work on the base.
That’s assuming the A-hole actually exists!!!
He entered the country legally when he was 17 with a Green Card. He had a felony offense which made him an alien with no right to be here. That is why he was detained and then deported.
Nor did I see that he was on the base after he was no longer in the service. He could have lived off base with his girlfriend while commuting to work on the base.
I loved the Navy, but I wanted to go to school, so when my four years were up I decided not to re-enlist. I was honorably discharged and signed up for community college and started working in clubs as a DJ, playing the Caribbean music I love. I was “Dutch B” on a local radio station, and for three consecutive weeks a girl called the station and asked me to play the same song. Her name was Judith, and she was an art student at Norfolk State.
When I was on the air, she was my silent co-host, always by my side. We got married in 2001.
After I moved in with Judith, I met another Jamaican guy on the base and we became friendly. We shared a love for the music and the culture of our home country. One day I bumped into him and he asked for a favor. A friend was sending him a couple of packages from New York, he said, and he didn’t have an address other than the base.
By the narrative it appears he had been on base after he had separated out of service.
