There could have been a skimmer. One thing to remember, from my understanding of skimmers is that they do not add to the process performed by the pump/ATM. They are passive scanners/watchers.
IE, the pump can ask for your name, rank, and SSN. When a skimmer is added, the pump will still ONLY ask for name, rank, and SSN. The skimmer only scans the card as it's inserted, and watches for any buttons that are pressed. The skimmer (unless something has changed) cannot/does not request more info.
