Precipitated by the organization, Pueblo Sin Fronteras, (people without borders), hoping to bring thousands of illegal immigrants into the United States for the purpose of eventually altering U.S. political demographics to ultimately benefit the Democrat Party, a caravan of emigrants from El Salvador is initially allowed by the Government of Mexico to traverse its territory toward the U.S. border. President Trump orders the National Guard to Americas southwest borders to block the caravan. However, before the National Guard arrives at the border, the Mexican government stops the caravan. Guard troops continue to the border to assist Homeland Security and Border Patrol prevent illegal aliens and drugs originating in Mexico from entering the United States.
Authorized for National Guard and US Army personnel in support of the Operation, Service Period.
