Fort Huachuca? My alma mater.

An investigative report from an Arizona television station reveals illegal aliens routinely are marching across a classified military base in order to enter the U.S., and the military’s perspective is that it’s not the Department of Defense’s responsibility to chase down invaders.
The report comes from KVOA-TV in Tucson, which reported that the fort, which is the home to the U.S. Army Intelligence Center and the U.S. Army Network Enterprise Technology Command, is having hundreds, perhaps thousands, of illegal aliens come across its 73,000 acres.
The site is located in the Huachuca Mountains only a few miles from the border with Mexico, and its location and uses should be a concern to Americans, according to a former Border Patrol agent.
“I think the average American should be petrified,” Dave Stoddard, a former supervisor of the federal border agency, told the station.
“That smuggling operation going through there is very, very sophisticated. They’ve been getting by with it for years. They know the formula. They know the routine,” he said.
The military is unconcerned.
“Apprehending undocumented immigrants is a Department of Homeland Security mission and not a DOD one,” the base said in a statement released to the television station.

Many times, when stationed at Luke AFB, we would cancel flying because illegals were present at the Goldwater Bombing Range. The pilots’ syllabus required them to drop live bombs. They could not.
They did not fly.
The pilots would normally graduate 3 weeks late because of this.
Enemies, foreign and domestic.
Damn sure is their concern.
They’d stop any American citizen from being in there.
Red Dawn
It has been happening forever.
Hauchuca is a huge range with a small presence.
Normally they just pass through.
The druggies run up through the Tohono Odham Indian reservation.
There are some bases where the guards patrol “with authorization.” Just crossing the fence line will get you shot on sight.
licence to kill huh.
Fort Huachuca? My alma mater.
Sure sounds crazy they weren’t cleared out of there.
Actually at this time of year Hauchuca opens the base’s remote ranges to the public for hunting.
It is weird.
The Military can’t bear arms, but the public can on the base during deer season.
The military priest (on base) said, as an aside,today in his sermon, we elect people and hop they preserve and protect the constitution.
The military are are hired guns and have no more regard for the constitution than BO?
this is an invasion, and it will pale the Obamacare deal, then usher in Hillary.
It will be their dream utopia.
The military?
I worked out on the east range for years.
I never felt unsafe.
Many times they were rounded up.
But, the next time we had live drop permissions, there would be more.
it was a pain in the ass.
Round em up, turn them over to BP, BP turns them over to ICE, ICE lets them go.
Lather rinse repeat.
People truly do not understand the border problem.
The Border problem is in Washington.
The Military must follow Law.
We can’t just open up on these guys because we personally think it is dicked.
That will get you put in Leavenworth.
I know of a navy base that back in the 80s LEOs were chasing a drunk driver. Drunk runs gate on base, guards shoot out engine, end of chase. The police stopped at the gate, they knew better...
I used to hike around and gather up turquoise and make jewelry from it at the arts & crafts center.
