He will remain an alien in our service abroad until and unless the Army terminates his service or he refuses to reenlist. So you see when he enlists abroad he must be :ordered by the Army to come here before the benefit of citizenship can be given to him. The Army can keep him 5 years in his Army enlistment abroad. and he gets no benefit as far as citizenship is concerned. but if the Army orders him here. he qualifies for citizenship and needs only to file a petition of naturalization. or if he and his witnesses are examined by a representative of the Army they may be naturalized immediately. Even then he must have completed 5 years of service before he can qualify. I think that gives the committee all the information.
