U.S. Army Raises Enlistment Age to 42, Opening Doors to More Recruits
The U.S. Army is increasing its maximum enlistment age from 35 to 42, following the Air Force and Space Forces lead. This change, effective April 20th, is not tied to overseas military buildups but reflects shifts in societal views on past marijuana convictions. Army veteran Curt Wesson welcomes the adjustment, emphasizing that experienced older recruits bring value, but all must meet strict fitness standards. The Navys enlistment cap remains at 41, and responses from local bases are pending.
