Looks like it was updated in 2011. I have no idea how the miltary works now. I left the military in the 90's at the time it was 4 years enlistment onboard a ship and the oboard NC1 got me shore duty as a reenlistment incentive for the next 4 years.

I've served 4 years aboard ship in San Diego and 4 years shore duty in Pearl. Both times I've met people who received special wavers to join the military after committing a crime.

Being ex-military and enlisted for 8 years. I've met people who I wouldn't introduce to my sister. Some states in the US give the option to join the military or go to jail. I was stationed with 4 such people. Criminals given the choice of jail or enlistment. So I'm not surprised these things happen.

I don't see the big deal. I thought the olympics was about national pride. Good for him he just wanted to make a patriotic statement..

Man this is sad...don't they have anonymous baby boxes where they can hand them over for adoptoion. I remember reading about them on the Kyodo. They don't ask who you are they just want your babies.
