P.S. Took a drive through southern AZ one Summer.... You couldn't pay ME enough to go work there....(And Im an Aussie...not exactly unfamiliar with heat!)
I found it amusing that the TSA, which considers itself to be a military-like organization, used the word "deploy" to describe sending employees to the border. It becomes even more amusing when one learns that TSA is asking for volunteers to go to the border. TSA is sending individuals to the border, not organized units, which could perhaps be considered a "deployment."
