Description

PIMA COUNTY, AZ - NOVEMBER 16: Civilian paramilitary Kat Nooy, 39, stands in the Arizona Border Recon (AZBR), camp near the U.S.-Mexico border on November 16, 2016 in Pima County, Arizona. Nooy works as a prison guard in a federal penitentiary, but serves as a nurse for AZBR. Asked why she volunteers on the border, she said 'I don't want people bringing in explosives. I work in a prison that houses terrorists. I have no issue with people coming over to have a better life, but there's a better way to do it.' The armed group, made up mostly of former U.S. military servicemen, stages reconnaissance and surveillance operations against drug and human smugglers in remote border areas. The group claims up to 200 volunteers and does not consider itself a militia, but rather a group of citizens supplimenting U.S. Border Patrol efforts to control illegal border activity. With the election of Donald Trump as President, border security issues are a top national issue for the incoming Administration. (Photo by John Moore/Getty Images)
