Yes, that is correct, but you have to score at least a 2 listening and 2 reading on the DLPT (Defense Language Proficiency Test). Also you need to check with your S1 and see if they can get you a list of languages they pay you to be proficient in.

How do I know? I was a staff member at the Defense Language Institute for three years.
