"He became a permanent resident in 1989. This means he could have applied for citizenship as early as 1994."
Story goes, kid was brought into the country illegally. Didn't try to become a citizen, enlisted, served, has been diagnosed with PTSD, and has been in trouble for drugs.
While he served and should've been granted citizenship, it appears he had a path but didn't take it. This is a sucky situation but again he could've been a citizen in 94. Why didn't he take it, why was he still on a green card?
