This change, effective April 20th, aligns with the Air Force and Space Force policies and eases entry for those with certain past marijuana convictions. Army veteran Curt Wesson supports the move, highlighting the value of life experience in older enlistees. The Navy maintains its cap at 41, while local recruiters await data on potential sign-up boosts.
