Naismith wanted to continue his military career as America entered World War I in April 1917. He considered applying for an active duty commission as a U.S. Army chaplain, but there were two things working against him: he was 55 years old in 1917, and he was not an American citizen.
Born in Canada, Naismith studied physical education in Montreal before moving to the United States, where he developed basketball in late 1891 while teaching at the International YMCA Training School (now Springfield College) in Springfield, Massachusetts.
