Yeah this guy went on patrols. He had to go to basic training for 3 months to get in shape and be able handle basic firearms. Was a farsibanOh yes, I knew a couple of Pakistanis who also served as translators in Afghanistan. A 12 month contract was 180k per year, tax free. You could make even more money if you were willing to leave the base and go on patrol with the Marines.
These were guys who didnt have much education or skills but had immigrated to America on family unification visa. So all they could do was manual or minimum wage jobs. Of course the translator work in Afghanistan paid 10 times more.
