Essay / Research Paper Abstract
Illegal immigration, migrant farm jobs and two periods of immigration allowances since the turn of the century have determined large Hispanic communities in the modern West. States like Texas have struggled to define these communities and distinguish between illegal immigrants and the crack down on illegal immigration and the rights of Hispanic-Americans living in these communities. This 12 page paper considers the scope of this problem, reflects the role of law enforcement officials, and also considers the problem of vigilante border patrols, who pose a threat both to Hispanic American citizens and illegal immigrants. Bibliography lists 8 sources.

Comas, as the Cuban army engineer in charge of the Cuban civilian internationalists working on Grenada, faced court-martial after the invasion. Forty-two other Cuban military officers on the island at
the time are said to have also faced punishment (PG) which is primarily due to the death of twenty-four civilian internationalists in the combat. The last American combat troops were
