“21-year-old Army veteran”
As I understand the guy did not make it through AIT before he was released. That does not qualify as an Army Veteran to me.
You don’t know why he was released early. Maybe he was injured in an accident. He chose to enter and there is no evidence that his discharge was questionable.
Smarten up.
Perhaps it may be of some help to speculate on some rumors about the mall cop’s background as well?
You are recognized as a veteran by the VA at 180 days of service, and become eligible for benefits.
