Is it true you now dont have to be an american citizen to join the american army?

You can also be a permenant (legal) resident.





But do not count on getting any top-secret informationIs it true you now dont have to be an american citizen to join the american army?
Yes, I have known several non-U.S. citizen service members. Security clearance restrictions will limit the jobs you have available (barring an exception for the good of the service and the United States), but it will also be easier for you to become a U.S. citizen if you so desire.





The United States has a long history of welcoming non-citizen service members. (Non-mercenary) Military service is one of the highest demonstrations of loyalty to a country and faith therein.





The best answer here is: Yes, a non-citizen can join the American armed forces. They should see a recruiter for conditions, which are numerous.Is it true you now dont have to be an american citizen to join the american army?
yes
You do not have to be a US citizen, but you DO have to be a Green Card holder.
Yes.





You must be a legal permanent resident (LPR) to enlist in the military. In fact, roughly 35,000 non-citizens are currently serving in the active miliary (2005 data).





Also, the 2004 National Defense Authorization Act implemented reduced peacetime waiting periods for US citizenship applications, among other benefits toward citizenship versus the general public.





All said, citizenship is required for virtually all appointments as a commissioned, warrant or National Guard officer.
This is true. The principles wildly used in many military forces all over the allow recruits from all over the world.


For example, in both world wars, American did not participated for a couple of years or so. Many Americans unhappy with their neutrality would travel overseas to fight as an american in Britan and France until the destruction of American neutrality. In WWII Spaniards joined the Finnish forces fight to keep communists out of Scandinavia despite the fact the Soviets were technically on their side, because of the Spanish Civil War which pitted the Socialists against Communists thus beginning the regime of Francisco Franco. I conclude that do to advertisements for the army on the spanish chanels and the history of representation of countries while under a differant nationality, that it would be typical of the military to request assistance of non-US citizens.
This isn't new. Back in the 1980's I was in, and served with a guy who wasn't American.
True.


I had a buddy in the Army who was Lebanese.
