The Shadow Wolves, an all-Native border patrol unit, is joining the search for terrorist leader Osama bin Laden.
The unit was sent to two former Russian republics to train local border units. The Pentagon now wants the officers to look for bin Laden, who is believed to be in Afghanistan, and his followers.
The Shadow Wolves are part of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement. They were created by an act of Congress in 1972 to patrol the Tohono O'odham Nation.
