As of May 2010, nearly 17k non-citizens serve in active duty for the United States.Up to 8,000 non-citizens enlist every year.
If they die while on duty they obtain citizenship and a military funeral.
If they get in trouble with the law, they risk being deported to whichever country they hail from,
as outlined in the 1996 Illegal Immigration Reform & Immigrant Responsibility Act.
An estimated 4,000 vets who served as far back as WWII
rot in immigration detention centers or have been deported.
