Everyone that enlists does so for 8 years. Some do 2 active duty and 6 reserves. Its not any different than enlisting normally

For the most part status is meaningless when youre in. However, I believe I read that you get status early on so you can advance through ranks. Also It says citizenship would be revoked if 5 years arent met

What I meant to say is that the wording indicates that you should already be a citizen

Current law states that any individual who legally enlists and serves in the military for one year is naturalized. During wartime the naturalization is immediate. My bill would extend this benefit to DACA individuals.All enlistees, upon joining the military, incur an eight-year service obligation. Naturalization only becomes final and irrevocable after five years of honorable service. Therefore, it is important to highlight that the grant of immediate naturalization is subject to rescission if the individual does not complete the service requirements or is discharged under less-than-honorable circumstances.
