When I was honorably discharged from the Army, I was automatically entered into 10 years of "Inactive Reserve Status." Which meant that any time during those 10 years, if the government needed me it could call me back.
I was told that when I got out of the Army. And it was part of the discharge papers too. I'm guessing that the same was probably true of that guy.
I'm not saying it's right for the Government to recall him - I'm only saying that it probably was part of his discharge papers.
