For being part of the surplus forces

It should read "contingente". Basically, it seems that this guy has been let off for a while as there are too many troops! Hope that makes sense.
Peer comment(s):

neutral Gino Amaral : As a matter of fact, he has been released from military service due to an excess of contingent. In Brazil, the military servive is mandatory (for men only).
