"That is just the start of this operation. We'll continue to adjust the numbers and inform you of those."
The 5,200 active duty troops are in addition to the 2,092 National Guard troops deployed earlier this year. The soldiers will "harden the points of entry and address key gaps in areas around the points of entry."
And that's not all:
"We have enough concertina wire to cover up to 22 miles already deployed already to the border. We have additional concertina wire that we can string, with over 150 miles available. Additionally, looking at where the reinforcers are needed so we can get it exactly where CBP wants us to put it," O'Shaughnessy said.
"We're also bringing three highly experienced and capable combat engineering battalions with expertise in building temporary vehicle barriers, fencing -- and we’re bringing them in with heavy equipment which, as we speak right now, is line-hauling towards Texas."

Put all the resources it takes there to keep illegals out of the USA. Call them undocumented if you want to support them. I have my own to take care of.
At every gap in the concertina wire, have an excavator digging a mass grave and a dozer to push the bodies in with; put those pictures out on Mexican social media, LOL!
now that's a welcome!
You are sick 2:42.
It's probably true that they will issue weapons, but they will NOT issue bullets. The concertina wire is good stuff, it can really slice and dice a person, but if you take your time and throw something over it, it can be easily breached. The sole purpose is to slow the intruder down.
IT IS BETTER THAN DOING NOTHING THOUGH!
It's about frigging time!!
