In the early 20th century, medicine career was shorter than today.
And during World War II, the career got even shorter to reclude more Physicians, so with 3 years of college was enough.
Still, Leo was born in May 1924, an only was 18 years old in 1942, which means he had to initiate his studies when he was around 14 and 15 years old, which is unlikely.
As a general rule, all the doctors that served in WW2, had been born when WW1 ended.
If Leo were at least 5 and half years older {mening if he had been born around october 1918 or prior} , his claim of being a doctor during WW2 could actually be possible.
