You get arrested. The authorities run a background check. They need to know if you have outstanding warrants or unpaid tickets, if you jumped bail somewhere, if you're driving a stolen vehicle. To obtain your criminal history, they routinely send your fingerprints to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, which keeps a database of more than a hundred million prints. The F.B.I., under a federal program known as Secure Communities, will share your fingerprints with the Department of Homeland Security. Homeland Security's core job--the reason it was created--is to prevent terrorist attacks on the United States. Your prints might reveal that you're a suspected terrorist. D.H.S. is also charged with border security. Its Immigration and Customs Enforcement arm, ICE, will run your prints through the D.H.S. database--specifically, its U.S. Visitor and Immigrant Status Indicator Technology Program (U.S.-VISIT) and Automated Biometric Identification System (IDENT), which also contain more than a hundred million prints--searching for a match with people wanted for immigration violations. If a match occurs, ICE can issue a "detainer." Now the local authorities, before they release you, may notify ICE, which may elect to transfer you to federal custody in order to begin deportation proceedings.

CAMP LEATHERNECK, AFGHANISTAN (Oct. 26, 2013) - Raised rough and tumble in the modest midwestern city of Mineral Point, Wis., GySgt Robin Baker came from an extended family dominated by males.

She found no easy paths or simple shortcuts. She didn't even bother to look. Instead, Baker said she embraced the physically demanding work and recognized it as an opportunity to prove herself and advance.

"I was one of them," said Baker. "It makes a difference to earn respect from a group like that. Your reputation will precede you. It doesn't happen overnight. It certainly doesn't happen after a month or two. But once they realize you are there to do a job and do it professionally … they will protect you with their life." Baker said she found a unique bond amongst her engineer peers. They relied upon each other's resilience. "We're crazy," she proudly acknowledged. "It's being in a group of people who are your family through thick and thin and who have the same goals. Our ties are strong."
