You are naive if you think this is a victory. The Major is about to have his ass handed to him by the U.S. Military. If you think they are going to stand for the birth certificate stuff as a means to avoid deployment, you are kidding yourself.
He is not trying to avoid deployment, he is trying to determine eligibility
YET THE MILITARY RESCINDED HIS ORDER TO DEPLOY.
This is the Big KABOOM that starts it all.
