Wait; I think I know....

The DoD complained about active duty in uniform being treated differently than active duty not in uniform. So, Pissy said, "Fine. Your people can do Precheck when not in uniform if you give us access to your data base." Hagel, like so many FFers, bought into the Precheck extortion on behalf of the entire U.S. Uniformed Services.
PreCheck for Military not in uniform pre-dates Hagel's confirmation.
