Our soon to be green card holding daughter will be joining the US Air Force this fall; we are so excited as she is too. Best decision she will ever make at this point and she can naturalize one year after joining according to the new executive order. WOW!!!!!
OOPS, Air Force too picky with 2 year green card. It is off to the Navy now. Less picky and many more opportunities!!
Daughter entered Navy in September and received Naturalization upon graduation.
Now in navy Corpsman School with grad date of March 2013. She really likes the regimentation. Maybe an application to Annapolis is in order?
