[wvns] U.S. Deports Parents of Dead Soldiers

U.S. Deports Parents of Dead Soldiers

One tenth of the U.S. soldiers who have died in Iraq have been
immigrants. But not all of their parents have qualified for green cards.

Three years after U.S. Army Private Armando Soriano, 20, died fighting
in Haditha, Iraq, his father is facing deportation. Soriano is now
buried in Houston, Tex., his hometown, where his parents, undocumented
workers from Mexico, are currently living.

Before his death Soriano had promised his parents he'd help them get
green cards. He only succeeded partially before losing his life.
Although his mother was able to obtain a green card, his father did
not qualify and is on the verge of being deported.
