If Gabe is from a notable family, and the military wants to have it publicly known that they're standing down the were-troops, he could be the big shiny example they're pointing to while saying "See? We're demilitarizing! Now how about you guys?" As an added bonus, the related attention could give Gabe an even better reason to want to go hide in the woods with Tyr and company. Of course, I have no idea about military procedure or how public this official story is, so I don't know if that'd work for you.
