I think that's the highest you can go without a college degree. A Warrant Officer isn't really an officer in the same sense as a Lieutenant, Captain, Major, or Colonel. It says he was drafted while he was a college student, and maybe he decided he liked the Army and didn't want or need to finish college.

IIRC: In the Navy (Late 60's) there was a path from WO-2 to O-1 but not after that. Then they wanted you to go on PBRs.
