Yes, but it is not automatic, despite the government literally having all the information already so they should be able to, blame Congress as usual. And quite often the way to begin that process is not mentioned to those that would qualify. It’s clearly one of the many areas the military doesn’t handle well.
For those that need it, a link to check eligibility and get the forms necessary:
I served with several who were trying to gain citizenship that way. I never thought to ask how they found out about it, I was always more interested in learning what they loved about here and missed from their home countries lol.
There’s also the chance that they’ll get deported after service because they weren’t given adequate support for PTSD and/or TBI.

Disgusting as it is, all the more reason to make sure these individuals know what they qualify for and get them everything they deserve.
The poor support we have for our veterans and first responders in this country after they’re out is ridiculous with the amount we pay for it. The VA isn’t immune from the US healthcare bullshit lobbied for by the insurance and pharmaceutical industries to line their pockets. Remove the shit they have managed to drive into the system for decades and our current spending would go a lot further, and increasing that funding at that point would get us to a more reasonable point. Instead they’re fighting about shit like whether having soldiers near burning pits of hazardous materials is bad for their health or not.
That is so obviously something his majority-undereducated followers would disapprove of.

Nice.
“Dey terk er dergers!”
Ermahgerd, dey terk er gersberms.
I can’t puzzle “gersberms” out, what is it?
This guy
Ohh, the OG! I don’t remember it being spelled that way, haven’t seen it in a long time.
Just wait til they find out you can gain citizenship by serving in our military
