to be admitted

No error

He was enough tall

- Option 1: into the armed forces

- This part is grammatically correct. "Into the armed forces" properly describes the direction or destination for admission.

- Option 2: to be admitted

- This part is also correct. "To be admitted" properly follows and completes the meaning with the intended use of the infinitive.

- Option 3: No error

- This option suggests there is no grammatical error in the sentence, but that is not the case here.

- Option 4: `He was enough tall`

- This part contains the error. The correct phrase should be "He was tall enough." The word "enough" should follow the adjective it modifies.
