He could have fought, he probably would have won, but if he lost it meant a Felony and no chance of ever getting his career back. He took the smart road and accepted their offer, taking a felony off the table.
He's caught in a mess.

That can be tough but since it isn't a felony then he can most likely get a waiver. The bitch of the situation is that right now recruits with waivers require more paperwork than those without, and since most branches are getting high quality recruits easily and are also about to start cutting back means he is going to have less of a change to get in than others.
However, his years with the police is a plus and could help him out. But only a recruiter can give him the info he really needs. Best of luck to him, the Coast Guard was my second choice.
I've got 6 years, and counting, in the Marines.
