Your first 3 sentences in that post seem very critical with the intent to undermine his claim. How else do you expect people to take it? It's obvious that you have an issue with it.
To be clear, his claim also comes off as disingenuous to me. I was enlisted AF for 7 years, 1 in reserve, and was around plenty of 2Lts. I know none of them truly lead anything, lol. Granted, I don't doubt that a guy like Chad Hall probably stood out amongst his peers and may have been more apt for leadership roles.
That said, if you were just curious, you could've simply said something like "how did he get out after only 2 years?" Or "I wonder if he had to be on reserve status for a while?"
