Section 349(a)(3) provides for loss of U.S. nationality if a U.S national voluntarily and with the intention of relinquishing U.S. nationality enters or serves in the armed forces of a foreign state engaged in hostilities against the United States or serves in the armed forces of any foreign state as a commissioned or non-commissioned officer.It would take a trained military defector to satisfy those conditions. That's exactly who those narrowly tailored provisions were designed for. If I defected (and got a decent spot), I would be subject. Some Girl on Facebook™....not so much.
CO/NCO is a thing, not anything, not everybody. There are a small handful of NCO candidates on this board...over decades, for example. No CO's that I'm aware of (but send me a pm and Ill show the proper deference from now on
