#1 Same thing happens to people with two passports from two different countries. I remember there being a big brouhaha a few years back about some kid who was Korean but also had American citizenship. He showed up in Korea with his Korean passport and the authorities were there to meet him at the airport: "You're in the Army now." His parents freaked, naturally, and called lawyers and tried to weasel out of it because having a US passport means a get out of jail free card.

#2 One of my professors in college had the same problem. He had both Greek and U.S. citizenship. He couldn't go back to Greece because he would be inducted into the army.
