The Army’s 104th Engineer Construction Company, based at Fort Hood, typically builds roads for hulking #military vehicles in remote combat zones like #Iraq and #Afghanistan. But since Election Day, they’ve been working on the border fence in Nogales, Ariz. It isn’t a mission the #troops are trained or equipped to do: the seven bulldozers, two excavators and other heavy equipment they hauled from central Texas have proved useless. Instead, they have been figuring it out on the fly, executing orders handed down by President Trump. On one level, those orders seemed straight­forward: protect the U.S. against what #Trump calls “an invasion” by a caravan of impoverished #migrants traveling north through Mexico. But the #soldiers don’t plan to migrants with force. Instead, the 104th Engineer Construction Company is doing its best to provide planning assistance, engineering support, equipment and resources to the Department of Homeland Security. In this photograph by @meridithkohut, razor wire is used to help protect a shipping container holding guns and sensitive material at Sunglow City, a 77-sq.-acre outpost constructed at Davis-­Monthan Air Force Base in Tucson. Similar scenes have played out across the Southwest since Trump issued his orders on Oct. 26. Some 7,000 active-duty troops began to flood #border communities from San Diego to Brownsville, Texas, a deployment that equals the troops fighting #ISIS in Iraq and Syria. Not since the days when General John “Black Jack” Pershing pursued the Mexican revolutionary Pancho Villa in 1916 has a comparable number of active-duty soldiers converged along the southern frontier for a mission.
