Ice arrests of US military veterans and their relatives are on the rise: ‘a country that I fought for’

As Trump urges more deportations, veterans are seeing their parents, children and even themselves detained

The son of an American citizen and military veteran - but who has no citizenship to any country - was deported from the US to Jamaica in late May.

Jermaine Thomas's deportation, recently reported on by the Austin Chronicle, is one of a growing number of immigration cases involving military service members' relatives or even veterans themselves who have been ensnared in the Trump administration's mass deportation program.
