Why can't foreigners join US armed forces and earn citizenship through service?
In France you have that option. Why not in America?

Because we already have enough felons in our military.
>>
I think they can, but they have to be legal aliens, not people brought in for that purpose.
>>
>>28520143

We already have more people want to come here than we currently want.

So there is no reason to offer it as a recruitment tool.
>>
>>28520143
But you can. And without being in a special snowflake regiment that's absolutely hated by native frogs.
>>
We do that, just not with foreign countries, only our protectorates. It's why you see so many puerto ricans in the marine corps.
>>
>>28520154
I think we stopped taking those in 2009 or so...but yeah, still a few of them still in
>>
>>28520163
Puerto Ricans are natural born citizens there chief.

You can. I think you need a green card, but joining the military for citizenship happens all the time. In my BCT unit, there was a dude from the UK, China, South Korea, and a dude from some pacific island I forget the name of. All of which got citizenship.
>>
>>28520154
Foreign Legion no longer takes in known criminals. They have access to EU, Interpol and several other domestic and foreign databases. You make their system go ringding during any numbers of background checks you're apprehended legion style which makes cops seem like girl scouts after which you're returned to country you're wanted in..
>>
>>28520198
They are? Maybe it's one of the other protectorates I'm thinking of where they've got the service for citizenship(for you and immediate family)deal.
>>
>>28520143
Foreigners can and do join the us military.


Fun fact: when it became public knowledge that Canada would no participate in Vietnam, thousands of Canadian civilians went south to volunteer.


In fact, the US got more recruits from volunteers coming south, than they lost in draft dodgers going north.


They aren't given citizenship so far as I know, but it's not like that's hard to get for a Canadian anyway.
>>
>>28520206
This. I went to BCT (2004) with a dude from Egypt and a dude from Ethiopia. The time zone difference meant they got to call home at weird times.
>>
You can. I know a flip that did it.
>>
don't know about joining for citizenship, but any male 18-26 who gets a green card is signed up for selective service.
>>
>>28520143
You can.

America is awesome though, even in it's faults.
Europe is dying. And on top of that, I live in anus of Europe, Balkans. I'd kill for American citizenship.

There's Nigerians that have joined. One of my good buddies was a chink from Vancouver and was still able to go Recon. Another one of my buddies is from France is now a SARC with MSOB. So you can join as a foreigner.
>>
You can't join as a foreigner, you need to be a permanent resident of the USA.
>>
>>28523137
This is not a thread for this discussion, but no.
1) no society ever reversed declining birth rates
2) EU is becoming EUSSR
3) Russians resumed with their shenanigans
4) Muslims are growing in number
5) Balkans is still shit full of shit people
Meanwhile, America keeps going strong.
>>
>>28523218
yeah
>>
>>28520154
The military isnt desperate any more for bodies. They don't take criminals any more. When a new war starts, then theyll start taking felons again.

Nigger there were Puerto Ricans going through my basic who were doing it for citizenship.

>earning citizenship through service
okay mr roman emperor, it worked so well the last time...
>>
We let foreigners serve in some respects. Usually in support roles, not sure if they can hold tank above e1 though. It's fucking disgraceful. Military service should be a valid and honorable way to earn citizenship.
>>
>>28523569
It did work though.
>>
>>28523542
You washed out of basic, didn't you?

Marines might not be smart, but you're too dumb to even get shot at.
>>
>>28523569
What didn't work so well is when he declared the barbarians to be roman citizens in order to increase his tax base.

>if we grant them citizenship, they'll become like us and will stop raping and pillaging!
>>
>>28523542
maybe they were just stupid
>>
>>28523542
Uhhh no. Seriously, fucking Google it.
>>
>>28523698
Or when they paid barbarians to not attack them.

Actually the implication is that Europe is doing exactly what led to the fall of Rome. You should take English lessons.

France lets anybody in anyway, seems like a raw deal to sign up to die in some shithole for them when the people of said shithole can walk into France and set down roots for free.

>>28520171
In my basic in 2013 there were a bunch of nigs from camaroon

>>28520143
France (untill recently) didnt have hundreds of thousands crossing their boarders each year.
>>
Can I live in france without the option of being raped by muslims?
>>
>>28520143
I do wish there was an american foreign legion to help freedom loving bongs and others fast track to citizenship.
>>
>>28526108
Nigger there IS.
https://www.uscis.gov/news/fact-sheets/naturalization-through-military-service-fact-sheet
>>
>>28526252
That sheet fails to mention one important thing.

To be eligible for naturalization via service, you have to be eligible to serve to begin with. That usually means permanent residency (green card) at the very minimum.

So, no. It's not exactly like the French Foreign Legion.
>>
>>28525329
No because they have strict gun control
>>
You can OP, cool thing too. After their oath of enlistment they take they're oath of citizenship. Had few graduates in my class do it.
>>
It kind of amazing how many people confuse citizenship with being a lawful permanent resident.
>>
Do you think America will America will invade Iran?

I will come join if they invade Iran
>>
>>28520143
Except that its definitely a thing that happens. I know an ass-tonne of people who have joined the army from around the world and earned their citizenship that way.

Those people are bigger American patriots than 99% of the rest of the US.
>>
If I come do my master's in the USA can i join the military there?

I have NZ citizenship and don't speak aby foreign languages
>>
>>28523218

>1) no society ever reversed declining birth rates

kek.

Still, you should simply check the immigrants' nations demography. You're in for some big surprises.
>>
>>28526671
God I hope not.
>>
>>28526871

Iran is tough enough to give us a fight. We would talk about airstrikes and laugh, but once they shoot one of our pilots out of the sky, there will be boots on the ground for Iraq 2: never-ending boogaloo.
>>
>>28526965
Ruskies and chinks would side with Iran tho

Will the Iranian regime ever be toppled?
>>
>>28527014
Why fight Iran when we can friendship Iran? They are the most stable politic in the ME, and a good counter to Israeli and Saudi influence.

They just need to reform a bit. We can work with them at doing that.
>>
>>28526834
no
need to be a permanent resident (green card) or speak a needed language (mavni program) if you're not a citizen
>>
>>28520143
I thought we did. Doesn't the Army basically sponsor a green card for green card for a certain number of people every year?
>>
>>28527414
>>28520206
>>28520234
Looks like I was right.
>>
>>28523294


Pathetic blacklivematter retards are nothjng compared to mudslime gang rape and immigration floods
>>
>>28527426
you are confusing citizenship with permanent residency. you can't join without the latter (green card) or by going mavni (doctors and people who speak certain languages). the two are different things. once you join you can then become a citizen.
>>
>>28520219
Unless you're brown.

Then you can literally show up with a frenchie's head in one hand and a bloody machete in the other and it's "oui! Welcome aboard!"
>>
>>28523542
They thought someone said illegal aliens and signed up.
>>
>>28527414
>>28527426
GREEN CARD != CITIZENSHIP

You *need* a green card to enlist, no exceptions. Once you have your green card and enlist AND ONLY THEN you're eligible for expedited process towards naturalization, aka citizenship.

Jesus fucking Christ, people. Know your own damn laws before commenting on it.
>>
>>28520143
>Why can't foreigners join US armed forces and earn citizenship through service?

Pretty sure you can, I just don't think you can do it if you're here illegally.
>>
>>28523218
Holy fuck you are stupid. The US is worse off than the EU at the moment. Don't come here we don't need anymore retards.
>>
>>28520143
How many terrorist attacks did France have lately? 'Muricans aren't as stupid as you think.
>>
>>28520143
because foreigners lack our fighting spirit. we won't want a bunch of recruits that are afraid to go through the door.
>>
>>28526582
>Qualified members of the U.S. armed forces are exempt from other naturalization requirements, including residence
