Almost all U.S. military officers are required to have at least a SECRET security clearance, and dual citizens likely would have issues getting one.[1]

  • Concern. Foreign contacts and interests may be a security concern if the individual has divided loyalties or foreign financial interests, may be manipulated or induced to help a foreign person, group, organization, or government in a way that is not in U.S. interests, or is vulnerable to pressure or coercion by any foreign interest. Adjudication under this guideline can and should consider the identity of the foreign country in which the foreign contact or financial interest is located, including, but not limited to, such considerations as whether the foreign country is known to target United States citizens to obtain protected information and/or is associated with a risk of terrorism.
  • Concern. When an individual acts in such a way as to indicate a preference for a foreign country over the United States, then he or she may be prone to provide information or make decisions that are harmful to the interests of the United States.

So, Groberg would have had to taken whatever steps the Army felt was necessary to terminate his French citizenship. He says that he considered this for two years before finally joining the Army as an officer. Plenty of time to consider his options and sent the legal process in motion.
