Just jumping right in as a Lt Col? Is there a lot of precedent for that? I know that the armed forces have worked with a lot of scientists before, like in the Manhattan Project, but my understanding is that most of them remained civilians.

Manhattan Project scientists were civilians. Doctors were often drafted as captains, I'm led to understand (via MAS*H).
