Just before finishing pilot school, after the government had already invested thousands of dollars in him, doctors found a joint problem in Harry's knee, preventing him from being a pilot. Harry jokes that the injury was probably a tennis injury. After being grounded, Harry was assigned duty on ~~a US aircraft carrier~~.
