[quote=Anonymous][quote]She was ROTC at Harvard. The Army has invested 4 years of Harvard education/ROTC training into her - you better believe they had a spot ready for her when she graduated.

So she got an educational deferment for law school - not highly unusual. But an additional deferment for a clerkship is unusual. And then ANOTHER deferment for a Supreme Court clerkship - I'm pretty confident that has never happened before. What use does the Army JAG Corps have for a former Supreme Court clerk?

Bet she has a good time processing insurance claims and filling out wills and POAs for deployments.  [/quote]

Do you know anything about military JAG?  Who do you think prosecutes and defends soldiers when they are tried?  Who do you think sits on the military bench?  Oh, sure, someone high profile like Bergdahl or Hassan may hire a private attorney, but most are handled in house.
Sure, there are JAG officers involved in wills and POAs which are pretty much forms prepared by paralegals,  but that is minimal compared to most of the other duties. Who do you think handles sexual assault cases?  Regular assault cases?  AWOL? Desertion? Theft? etc.  Oh, and there are also housing discrimination cases, and all types of legal issues.

There will be plenty of time for her to serve.  She may have already, in fact.
