I just checked the military pay chart. Using the lowest paygrade of E-1 less than 2 years, he'll be making $1680.83 a month base pay, which is taxable income So figuring that first month (Sept) probably won't be a full month, that comes to $5042.49 for the last full three months of 2019. So he won't qualify as a dependent on anyone's tax return.
