That is my point...he was in the Military...but when off duty...on pass...on leave...he was a "tourist". Millions of Americans have done the same thing. BTW...passports are renewable...and many that have had passports do not any longer have a valid passport so I assume would not be included in the 20% figure that was presented (assuming that 20% is a valid figure which it may or may not be).
