| It is not so much that they are needing more soldiers, the Army is just undermanned and the Air Force is overmanned. This problem is a nasty one, and the Air Force is forcing people out, some of which get scooped up by the Army.
As for what positions they are lacking, i am unsure. The illiteracy and lack english language sense, may be a problem, but those things are required for citizenship any way. There are programs that exist or could be created to help in that regard.
The military usually trains people to work in a certain field while they are in. I am sure they will be able to fill postions other than "footsoldier" with the illegals.
"By three methods we may learn wisdom:
First, by reflection, which is noblest;
Second, by imitation, which is easiest;
and third by experience, which is the bitterest."
