Check Out Border Wars and Border Simulation


Border Wars is a television show on The National Geographic Channel featuring CBP agents/officers as they enforce U.S. laws, fight terrorism and intercept persons trying to enter the U.S. illegally. In its second season, the show appears on Wednesday evenings at 9:00 pm Eastern Time. Check the schedule for more information on the show and upcoming episodes.

Would you like to experience a “day in the life” of a CBP officer working at a port of entry at the border? In this simulation, you will be able to select to patrol at a point of entry or in the desert. As an office at the port of entry, you will encounter people trying to enter the country and make decisions on whether to grant entry or do a more intensive investigation. Will you make the correct decision? On patrol, you will patrol on an ATV or in a helicopter and make life or death decisions. Click HERE to participate in the Border Patrol Simulation. Then click on “You Are A Border Agent” to start the simulation. Enjoy! Maybe CBP will create some additional simulations for other areas such as C-TPAT Validations, Focused Assessments and more!
