Do you draw the line somewhere? If her boyfriend were 30? 35? 49?
Yes, she should have been able to go with her Marine. 21 is fine, better than if she were with a 15 y.o.

Why does age matter? It’s a dance. As another poster mentioned, I don’t recall any rules about age when I was in school. It was a non-issue. No one was going to show up with someone vastly different in age. They would have been the butt of jokes forever. I don’t remember any large age differences showing up at proms. I can think of more important things to be concerned with.
And if she were lesbian and wanted the bring her girlfriend, it would have been fine.
