Only similar case that I can think of was; A dual citizen US Army Reserve Jewish-American officer who lost his security clearance when his security investigator found out that he served in IDF when he was studying in Israel during same time when he was a member of US Army Reserve. http://www.public-action.com/911/rescue/obq-wnd-04-24-2002/index.html Maybe pledging to one master should be a class during Basic Training or OBC. Once you are US Military personnel, then you can not serve other countries' military until you are fully out of the service. GI,
