No, he did not. But these days, that is not unusual. Back in the era before President Obama was born, there was a military draft and young men had to register for it; there was the Korean War, and then the Vietnam War going on, so large numbers of American young men were called to serve. Many members of congress in the 1960s and 1970s (more than 75% by some estimates) had already served in the military, and it was a common experience for that generation.
But now, there is no draft, and many fewer members of congress (about 20% currently) have had any military service. That includes President Obama, who was a former US Senator-- by the time he was growing up, there was no more draft. And with no wars to go fight, he was one of many who never entered the army, navy, marines, air force or coast guard. But as Commander in Chief, Mr. Obama, like each president, is in charge of the military and oversees military strategy, along with his chosen Secretary of Defense.
