The US Army has increased the maximum enlistment age to 42 years old and alleviated restrictions on recruiting people with prior marijuana convictions. The enlistment age will officially change from 35 to 42 “for applicants with prior military service” on April 20, according to an Army Regulation report released last Friday. The minimum age for the Army is still 18 — though 17-year-olds can enlist with parental permission.
