We have 10 million illegals running around. We can augment ICE with the military. Here is an example. Imbed 1 ICE agent inside each platoon. The platoon can only detain a suspect the ICE agent makes the arrest.

*The two-year option is now available for 84 different career fields, ranging from infantry*

Thanks but 2 years is still an eternity to most 18 year olds.

Don’t think that is very practical. Our border with Mexico is 3,145 KM long. Divided into 100 meter sections is 31,450 centers. Assuming a 3 man gun crew, to carry out your recommendation, would require 94,350 personnel on duty at any one time. To have a three section rotation on each 50 cal gun would require 283,050 personnel for the Mexican border alone. That figure does not include the 1,000s of support personnel needed to keep 283,050 troops in the field. The numbers are even larger for the Northern border. The border with Canada is 8,891 KM long.
