but being a part of the "defense force" itself is not the best thing you can do with your life.

you'll be miserable.

I don't know you but I know well enough about the armed forces to know that it's a really, really bad idea.
But there you go, he's joining the army for the wrong reason. He wasn't interested in serving his country, he did it because he "screwed up". And this is the case for any job, if you join it because it inspires you then it will suit you, but out of desperation and you're unlikely to get much out of it.

As far as I can see, Phanastasio isn't in that position, so I don't think this should be a factor.
