Army Increases Maximum Enlistment Age by 7 Years, Softens Other Restrictions

The U.S. Army will now allow men and women to enlist up to the age of 42.

The change from the current maximum age of 35 goes into effect on April 20, according to Army Regulation 601–210.

The regulation makes a major change concerning potential recruits and America’s drug culture.

Men or women who want to serve in the Army do not need a waiver if their criminal records consist of no more than one conviction of possession of marijuana or one conviction of possession of drug paraphernalia. The regulation makes no change in the requirement of a waiver for other drug convictions.
