I shall soon be released from prison and deported to Mexico. Is it permissible for a Muslim to join the army? I will have to shave my beard if I join the army.

It is not permissible for a Muslim to join the army of the kuffaar. Shaving the beard will not be permissible. You will have to find other work.
