Terry: I was in KAF when they tried to do a big roundup of the illegals. The MPs would be at the DFACs (Dining Facilities), especially at breakfast time, checking for valid IDs. You would see a company bus pull up around the corner, and two little guys come around the corner to check. If there were no MPs, then they would let the bus know and everyone would come in for breakfast. If the MPs were there, then they got back on the bus and would try another DFAC.

They would get onto the camp awaiting their security clearances. When the security clearance would fail to materialize, they would just go underground rather than leave.

My 20 months in KAF were some of the best and most meaningful in my life. I would go again in a heartbeat if the opportunity presented itself.
