 Rep. Russell: Care Needed When Vetting Foreign-Born Military Recruits
(Fox News/"Fox & Friends")

Admitting foreign-born individuals into the military without properly vetting them first could "do an awful lot of harm," Rep. Steve Russell, R-Okla., an Iraq war veteran who led the mission to capture Saddam Hussein, said Thursday.

"Well, I think that any time you don't have a proper vetting background of folks that could enter from a foreign country, even with special skills, they could do an awful lot of harm, especially when they have been hired for those special skills," the retired lieutenant colonel told Fox News' "Fox & Friends" program.
