1. I don't understand how this can happen.
Aren't plaintiffs barred from initiating a lawsuit if the defendant is actively in the military?

2. No. But there's a relief act (soldiers and sailors?) that gives them time
to respond when they're overseas and can't defend themselves locally.

I could be mistaken but it appears from a quick read it was the father's home.

edit spelling

5. Looks like it's his civilian dad that owns the house. I guess the military son
just gives it a more attention-worthy angle, somehow.

6. Father as far as I can tell.
Parents of active duty military can be foreclosed on like anybody else.
