He would be treated badly, not a good idea. Even if he was not one, he would have "spook" written all over him and it would be difficult.
The boy needs to open his eyes. Too bad that the Marines did not hold him until he grew up.

My thoughts exactly. We felt there was a high probability of him never coming back from China.
He's a smart guy. He did high school in three years (was a year younger but graduated with his brother and I), then did college in three years (Bachelor's in Electrical Engineering from U of I). Upon graduation, he did concrete work for a few years in Colorado.
Beyond academia, he's never had a purpose in life. He just moves from one crackpot idea to the next, always getting dissatisfied when he realizes his idea won't be as easy as he first thought. I felt four years a grunt would have taught him more than he is ever likely to get on his own.
