 Immigration Law & the Military

Splitting my time between El Paso and San Antonio, both rather large military towns, I have found this book to be a wonderful resource and worth the investment for any practitioner's library. If you are an AILA MAP participant, the material compiled here will help ensure your support is properly focused and effective. - Edward Rios

Lieutenant Colonel (Ret) Stock’s book is a tour de force of scholarship and practical advice that fills a great need. Anyone who deals with the immigration issues of military members and their families should have this at his or her finger tips.
