Here is the deal..
He enlisted in 2006 and went to boot camp.. He was the discharged from boot camp for his asthma.. Even though they discharged him from boot camp, the army didn't discharge him completely.. Now that the rules have changed for asthma, it looks like he will have to serve his original sign up, which was for 5 years.. I am sure they will send him to Iraq if they have half a chance..
This is another ploy by the government to gain soldiers with out bringing back the draft.. A lot of folks are being called back that were discharged or have already served their signed up term.. My wifes nephew has already served his 4 years and didn't re-enlist.. they have put him back on the active list and are planning on sending him back to iraq. This will be his third time over there.
When you enlist into the armed forces, they own you till you die..
