Does existing federal law provide for expedited citizenship for non-citizens in the US military?

I have been curious about this amid all of these debates about the DREAM Act (which I am keeping an open mind on, but am not yet ready to support).

3. They need to pass a law
that if you have honorably served in the military of the United States and are not a citizen, you instantly get citizenship.
