Over 2,000 soldiers to deploy from Fort Carson to support troops at southern border

[slothe]

Fort Carson in Colorado will be deploying approximately 2,400 soldiers to
the southern U.S. border.

A Fort Carson spokesperson said the soldiers, members of the 2nd Stryker
Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry Division, will join active-duty
personnel who were deployed to the southern border earlier this year.

"As we prepare to deploy in support of the Southern Border Mission, the
Mountain Warriors are trained, equipped, and ready to answer the call,"
said Col. Hugh W. A. Jones, commander of the 2nd Stryker Brigade Combat
Team, 4th Infantry Division. "We will work closely with our federal,
state, and local partners to enhance security in the region, and we remain
committed to executing this mission with professionalism and dedication."

The unit will operate under the direction of the 10th Mountain Division
Joint Task Force and U.S. Northern Command.

According to preliminary data released by the U.S. Border Patrol, illegal
crossings of the southern border have dropped to the lowest level in 25
years. The first drop reportedly took place in early 2024 when Mexican
officials expanded efforts to stop migrants from reaching the border. They
continued to fall throughout the summer when former President Biden
restricted access to asylum seekers.

Border Patrol Chief Mike Banks told CBS News in February that unlawful
crossings have dropped 94% from the same period last year. He said Border
Patrol agents have been apprehending an average of 285 migrants per day
and, as of Feb. 20, "anyone that has crossed the border between the ports
of entry since this (President Trump's) administration has taken office
has not been released."

The upcoming deployment from Fort Carson is not the base's first group to
support the Southern Border Mission this year. In January approximately
150 soldiers from the 759th Military Police Battalion Headquarters and the
569th Combat Engineer Company-Armored deployed to the southern border.

It's nice to have a President who keeps his word.
