11. Enlistment Age is 42. See proof

ORT KNOX, Ky. (Army News Service, June 22, 2006) – The Army has raised the enlistment age to 42, made possible under provisions of the Fiscal Year 2006 National Defense Authorization Act.

The Army raised the active-duty age limit to 40 in January as an interim step while it worked out the additional medical screening requirements for recruits ages 40 to 42. Before January, an applicant could not have reached his or her 35th birthday. The Army Reserve age limit was raised from 35 to 40 in March 2005.

Army raises enlistment age


31 years old?? what the fuck does he think he's eligible for Medicare already or something?? stupid outta shape rube.

What's going to happen to eye-raq when we leave? simple. The people are going to Democratically elect someone that is virulently anti-America, that will install a new Islamic Theocracy (Iran II) and he will make the torture chambers of Saddam's era look like Spas.

These stupid yahoos still believe that out of this turmoil somewhere the people are going to rise up and create some sort of Southern Baptist Christian run country? THE PEOPLE DO NOT WANT THAT. THE PEOPLE WANT AN ISLAMIC NATION. THAT'S WHAT DEMOCRACY IS GOING TO MEAN TO THEM. THAT IS WHAT IT MEANS NOW.
