Yes, it used to be 37 USC 303a but that has been replaced and I
cannot find (yet) the new section.

If I remember correctly, there is a nonbankruptcy provision that applies to the nondischargeabilty of these type military types of debt. I would start with 10 USC Sections 510 -511 and also 10 USC Section 2005, but there are other statutes as well dealing with discharge of debts to military.

Esteemed colleagues:
Potential debtor received an ROTC scholarship from the U.S. Navy. 
He failed to complete the program and as such now is being required
to repay the cost of the university tuition.
This is not a student loan, but it is an educational debt.
I do not see any reason why it would not be dischargeable, unless it
somehow falls under 523(a)(7).
Anyone have experience with this type of debt or believe it would
not be dischargeable?
