Military Illegals

The real question though, why wouldn't you prioritize an illegal adding value to the country (serving, studying in college, working) behind a criminal?

An article from 2004 Spence? And one that quotes the subject of the other article from 2003?

And even (way back then) in the article it states that "some" of the people that ended as unknown on the citizenship question may have been illegals.

There probably are some illegals still in today but likely a tiny-tiny percentage.

But thank you for your (non) links as I looked up a bit and ran across this story when searching for something in the past year: Former illegal immigrant follows path to military service
