I guess he was thinking he would get the same treatment as Caleb Campbell.

from the same article:
"Caleb Campbell was drafted by the Detroit Lions this year, becoming the first Army football player to benefit from a new policy allowing athletes with a chance to play professionally to complete their service by serving as recruiters and in the reserves. "

Seems to me that the services need to get their act together and be consistent. I really can't blame the kid for giving it a shot to play pro ball, after all he doesn't make policy.
