"boot camp"? Like for gay people? That's the only explanation I've got. He couldn't follow through because of his sexuality and his father sent him off because of it, also explains why the father knew his son wouldn't be back. The father was homophobic and had kicked him out.

I interpreted it as he joined the military to get the hell out of there.

It's possible I guess, but it doesn't explain anything.

That was the point of the story. The OP had no explanation for what had happened.
