Yes. Children of service members who are born abroad of two US Citizen parents are NOT eligible to be POTUS. (At least that’s what I was told by the US Embassy when my son was born.)

I too had this explained to me by a retired military. Children born abroad to U.S. citizens are absolutely "citizens", but not "natural born citizens". They are naturalized-by-statute.

They explained it to you wrong.
