National Guard curbs border crossings says Chertoff

Homeland Security head Michael Chertoff claimed that the presence of Nation Guard troops along the U.S.-Mexico border has helped decrease the number of illegal crossings nearly 50%. Meanwhile, several Border patrol agents said that some areas along the border were “short-handed” since they were assigned away from their usual posts in order to help National Guard troops.
