Jail or military?
Usually doing drugs gets you kicked out of the military. In this case, a man who was convicted of marijuana possession was told enlist or go to jail. Apparently, the man shot someone who broke into his house, of which he was not convicted. I guess the judge thought, well, he knows how to work a gun and he's draft age--perfect for the military!

This kind of thing (enlist or else) used to be fairly common back before the all-volunteer force. But I can't remember it being used in drug cases. I wonder what the judge is going to do when the military rejects the guy because of his drug dealing? Maybe the CIA can use him.
