A DD2765 is an DoD ID for a 100% disabled US Veteran. Why don't you take your penchant for forming an opinion without due cause and try researching the facts, prior to spouting off. By the by, I am not alone in viewpoint, on this thread.

Once again, we are awaiting your due diligence in providing the form numbers required for immigration, which a service member is able to expedite his immigration process to less than about 2-1/2 yrs. Your obvious devotion to service is appreciated.

The form number for a 100% disability might be important to the disabled, but not many others in this effort.

I admit I'm thankful the good Lord allowed me to well plan our military operations and train our men well for unforeseen events so that we could fulfill our missions without disability. Even if we had all been so wounded, He is still gracious in His provision.

I celebrate Memorial Day in honor of those through no fault their own, lost significantly while persevering in faith of Christ for the national defense.

A foreign born US MIL service member can duly apply for US citizenship 180 days prior to the end of first enlistment and can become a US citizen upon the end of first enlistment, as long as it was an Honorable term of service. As to, whatever else your fevered mind is blathering on about- I have no idea. Perhaps you would like maple or boysenberry syrup with your drivel pancakes.

Do please continue, oh wise one.

Once again, follow the process from application to citizenship. Are you implying his platoon commander or ship's captain is the official administering citizenship? Not so.

How does that citizenship application not terminate if the INS is unable to locate the servicemember within a limited period of time? I was under the impression that if the application response wasn't quickly performed, the process would have to be restarted from the beginning.

I understand as did the good MGySgt that a qualification to apply exists within 180 days of end of 1st enlistment, but that isn;t the same s citizenship.

ahem...hopefully someone who cares- has your car keys, matches, sharp objects, etc., in a place safely away from your grasp.

Nice story BUT...

It SOUNDS like a planted story promulgated by the new Tony Snow/George Bush/Carl Rove "Undocumented Immigrant" Propaganda Machine.

The guy started out as an ILLEGAL ALIEN (notice how the story describes his illegal act as, "who MOVED to the U.S. but was not a legal citizen", and "Denogean and his family IMMIGRATED to the United States in 1966") breaking into our country. As a former Marine, I don't think he should have been given the opportunity and privelege to serve in the UNITED STATES Marine Corps.

I'm sorry President Bush. I have supported you in most you've done, but your constant bleating about America being a nation of "immigrants", while true, does NOT apply here. ILLEGAL trespassers should be arrested, jailed, processed, and deported. If caught again, they should ROT in prison. Send them ALL back. NO AMNESTY.

That this US Marine could not declare US Citizenship- during or soon after his first enlistment, much less for 25 yrs- is an indisputable travesty of Honor.

Dignity consists not in possessing honors, but in the consciousness that we deserve them. --Aristotle.
