Enoch Orona is unsure when he'll be dispatched for his third tour of duty. But the Navy sailor's greatest fear is not combat — it's returning home to find that his mom isn't there.
Orona, 30, is paying close attention to the news, checking his phone often for any updates on immigration raids that President Trump announced could begin any day now. He can't help but imagine men with guns surrounding his parents' home in Virginia.

I appreciate this young soldier’s service, however, that does not excuse the fact that his family members are in the country illegally. It is very doubtful that “men with guns will be surrounding his parents’ home”, unless they or others there have ignored a deportation order from a court or they have committed other crimes. That is just liberal hype and delusional hysteria.
Illegally enter any other country in the world, refuse to leave, and see how you are treated... Stop spreading the BS hysteria...

They shouldn’t have entered the country illegally. Then this wouldn’t be an issue.

Can't he start the paperwork to allow them to remain in the country legally? They should have done that when they first entered the country, but is it too late now?
