My dad was one of those DI's (drill instructors) that wore the Smoky the Bear hats like in An Officer and a Gentleman. He trained troops to fight in the Viet Nam war and commented on what a difference there was in the young men at the end of basic training. My dad also fought along side his troops in Viet Nam. I think that it will be the same for your son, too. Try and hang in there for his sake if that's what he has his mind set on.
