Publisher Description

An inside look at the U.S./Mexican border through the eyes of former U.S. Border Patrol agent, Vincent Vargas, who served in Iraq and Afghanistan with the U.S. Army’s 75th Ranger Regiment.

This program is read by the author and features a foreword written and read by #1 New York Times bestselling author Jocko Willink.


The U.S./Mexican border stretches nearly 2,000 miles and is protected by a thin line of overworked and underfunded U.S. Border Patrol Agents, who risk their lives every day. Stigmatized in the media and fought over in the halls of Washington D.C., this is the true story of what is really happening on the U.S./Mexican border.

Borderline provides an inside look through the eyes of former U.S. Border Patrol agent, Vincent Vargas, who is no stranger to violence, having served in Iraq and Afghanistan with the U.S. Army’s 75th Ranger Regiment.

The story begins on the battlefields of the Middle East and culminates on the southwest border of the United States, where Vargas was tasked with protecting his country, his fellow agents, and the immigrants caught in the middle. He learned firsthand about the unforgiving brutality of the cartels, human traffickers and the desert.

After bearing witness to the carnage, Vargas made the decision to join the Border Patrol’s elite search & rescue unit called BORSTAR.

With almost unfettered access, Vargas provides an in-depth, never-before-seen look into the U.S. Border Patrol, from the agency’s origins to its present-day missions.

EDUCATIONAL..

This book has some great insight into the Border Patrol and how they operate. It puts to bed rumors and falsehoods that have circulated for a long time. Also, I didn’t realize the BP had Special Forces. I thought it had a decent combination of action and info. 1 part action, 2 parts educational. If you’re looking for an action thriller, this book may not be for you. If you’re looking for some great stories and a ton of great information on the Border Patrol, this book is for you. Thank, You Mr. Vargas for your service in all aspects. You are a true Patriot!

Well worth the read

Excellent and very informative read. Loved learning about Vincent’s experiences, and more about the border patrol. A must read for anyone interested in learning more about the complicated immigration border issues America faces currently.
