"My bet Obama doesn’t even let this get to court. "

As I said in an earlier post, if this doctor is an obligated officer - a big "if" - no way does the Army blink this time. It would set such precedent as to place them in an untenable position, flood gates would open to all manor of challenges on this premise.

Rescinding or revoking orders for an reserve officer who volunteered is quite different from revoking the orders of someone who's contractual obligated to the Army.

That's what the Army will do. What the district court will do is another matter altogether. I'm guessing that they'll dismiss on the basis of lack of standing - not saying I agree with it or that they should - I just think that's what will happen.
