I almost never post, and I was never in the FFL, but I do have info for the original question. As to why the FFL would consider two years at an American community college ‘bad’ I think that is over thinking things. But here goes--and I know what I am talking about as after my military service I was a member of the professoriate.
It is possible the ‘Gestapo’ could learn of your college attendance. In the US there is a database used by universities to verify what a prospective student says about their previous educational experience.
So, if Joe Blow, who for the sake of argument, flunked out of ‘Rat Hole U’ and is applying to ‘Third Rate State University’ and claims he has never taken college courses he can be found out and denied admittance.
Now, this database is protected by very firm federal privacy laws. Sure, with a warrant the FBI can access these records, but the information in them is fiercely protected.
I really doubt that the recruiting arm of an allied military would have access to them. But I guess if one wants to be paranoid, perhaps there are bilateral agreements, etc. that would allow the ‘Gestapo’ to access the database. But I really doubt if such agreements exist.
But really, if you say you have no college, why would they care to check if your statement were the truth?

with a loaded gun, so no I don’t want a load of thick idiots enlisting in any army some of us might have fuc-ed up personally in our life’s but it takes a enigma to join the Legion underneath we were quite good soldiers fit and banged into shape to make good solid units in our own time we hung out in our preferred groups language dictating but also a lot of other nationalities decided to hang out with the Roast Beefs 
some cracking guys but on the job we were solid new our personal strengths and weaknesses new the task and got it done if you don’t like fitness then I only no it counts it also makes the training less demanding and you have something to offer i new 2 words in French but determination personal motivation (5 -7 jail awaits back home) or 5 years with the legion often think where did I no that from ? Any other guys BITD no much more than that apart from 2x guys over a 6 month period had deserted and sold their stories to the Sun 
They did not portray the Legion very well for some reason that made me more curious but I’m that type I needed a bit of structure I was running a bit wild and the jail sentences were going to get bigger as the risks and force needed and tools to remain free were not worth missing out on freedom jail in the UK was not to bad in the late 70s but still not free and I missed to much so it was a no brainier
