Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
The age limit changes constantly based on Needs of the Army. I had a 42 year old specialist in Afghanistan. No offense to anyone here but, the older guys who admittedly have a lot of valuable skills and life experience have a very difficult time taking and following orders from leadership who is often younger than they are. Just my observation.

That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.
Eh. I can still out work guys half my age. Hell, winning money arm wrestling 25 year old gym rats isn't a big deal.
I'd never consider military service but if I did keeping up with the kids these days wouldn't be a big deal.
I saw that plane! I was working in Pueblo and saw it. I also thought it was kind of low for its size.
