I thought the military was meeting recruiting goals with little problem.
This quote sourced to Lieutenant Colonel Bryan Hilferty, may explain why they are making their recruiting goals.
That has led Pentagon officials to consider casting a wider net for noncitizens who are already here, said Lieutenant Colonel Bryan Hilferty , an Army spokesman.
I wouldn't write this off as slanted journalism. The following quote from the article shows that at least the American Enterprise Institute is looking at it.
"It works as a military idea and it works in the context of American immigration," said Thomas Donnelly , a military scholar at the conservative American Enterprise Institute in Washington and a leading proponent of recruiting more foreigners to serve in the military.

Spock, what's your take on this.

Captain, beaming him up would be highly illogical for his plan is NOT logical.

My suggestion Captain, as a Vulcan, would be to maintain life support first and beam him up when we no longer are at threat of losing the ship with all on board.

Bone's, what's your take on this.

Damn it Jim, I'm a Doctor NOT a solider!!!
