I joined at 38 in that window after 9/11 when the Army raised the max age to 42. It was fine, your point about patience is spot on. You have to realize that basic and AIT are a game, just keep your eye on the end goal and realize you're going to have to put up with some ridiculosity for awhile to get where you want to be. Embrace the suck and you'll come out fine on the other end. The physical stuff... When I joined I couldn't run a whole mile, I was doing something like an 11 minute mile, and I could probably get 25 pushups out at a time. It's fine, that's what basic training is for. You'll get where you need to be in nine weeks. You're not going to get enough sleep, you're going to get f*ed with psychologically. Just realize that 'mass punishment' is really just a way for cadre to get in more physical training outside of normal PT hours. If you can navigate all that, basic is the most fun you never wanna have again.

Hello I would like to tell you thank you for your service in the military and how hard would it be for a 43 year old to join the military

I am currently going through the enlistment process at 33

Turn 32 in a week! Currently QNA (qualified not enlisted) for the WA Army NG. Gonna send it and have a great time and learn and grow! Wanted a career change, learn new skills, benefits and education! 25 Bravo MOS.

I turn 31 before my ship date I’m nervous but ready

What is your job in the military

Hey man i barely turned 30 and i always but i was scared Im thinking of joining the infantry cuz i feel ill regret it when im older. Do u think its a waste of time from what u see

It’s crazy I watched years back and now I’m in the army and in the same unit, literally sucks I hate it.. working everyday for 21 day straight the heat is terrible

Sorry dumb question here….. bust ur ass for the raise….. so during drills and stuff try to be the best or the top few??

DCU camo? In 2022?????

33 getting ready to go to meps. Wish me luck.

im 32 with no criminal record and healthy. im thinking about joining as well.

Is be interested in the car thing. Thanks for these videos. I'm watching them all. I have my dream car and it's still got like 9k on it to go... id rather not let it go, but I'm financially fucked under this administration.... and I'm enlisting because of them.

30 now 31 soon trying to join army infantary great video man!

I’m 30 and I’ve been thinking about joining the army reserve. I have a wife and autistic kid I would leave behind for 10 weeks plus. Any advice?

Thank you and this content was low key/ chill mode and yet very realistic & educational for sure!

Cameras weren’t this clear when BDU/DCU’s were the uniform. Think camcorder with the hand strap. Also, TH-cam didn’t even exist then.

Thank you for this video man

I am 34 in plans with my recruiter to enlist and in a week I’m taking the ASVAB at my local MEPS.

Hello Gibson

33 and joining. Lets gooo!!!!

Can you please do the car note situation

Hey can you explain the money you get for dependents in more in depth?

sadly, my tattoos make me only eligible for the navy

thanks

How do you feel about the experience now after a couple years?

I’m 34 now , I’m getting my diploma and then gonna apply to the army .

I have felonies I’ll need waivers for. Do you think I’ll have an issue becoming a 12P?

To be fair, in the restaurant industry, there are tons of managers mhch younger that the crew workers, and Ive had like 5 managers younger than me already. Plus when I resume collehe, wome teachers will be younger than me too.

Glover Texeira win a UFC title at 42, ao you can definitely join theilutary after 30, and be successful. This is why theyve increased age limits. Interestingly, Glover win LHW title at 42. Whats the new age limit for Mavy and AF? 42. Coincidence.

Thanks So Much for the info. How about 42 years old? I’m enlisting.

Is 34 to late

What made you go?

Great video. I’m 31 and talking to a recruiter later today .

I’m 36 and signing my contract in two weeks. Most likely shipping out beginning of 2025 (I be 37). I can’t wait. But definitely dealing with younger people will be something different for me because I been a construction laborer for 17 years and always worked with people older then me.

im 32 and just joined, i watch a few videos and this was the best one thank you!

Thanks for the video I am 34 and going to to take the asvab next week hopefully 🤞 can join and pass everything in meps

I joined in the summer of 1998. At the age of 23, I was middle aged. Everybody was 18. We had some 30 somethings as well. We had one soldier that was 29, going on his third time trying to join the military. He got kicked out of the navy for punching an officer. For grabbing his tushie. He then got kicked out of the army cause his recruiter hid his navy discharge. When I met him he was squared away, but suffered an injury. He went to rehab. When you are over 21, you are seen as old. But you may buy beer.

4:16 am, I need structure. 31 y/o

Just turned 43 I think am too old even for reserve unless I get a waiver?

Hey brother how do I go about getting rid of my car I ship to basic July 15th

Thinking About Joining At 33 Years Old I Have A Family To Take Care Of But The Only Thing Is Im Fighting A Misdemeanor The Case Is Foul .... I Have My Concealed Permit And U Went To Jail Because I Was In My Car But My Weapon Was On The Floor Board But I Never Had This Problem Before This Cop Was Different. Now I Can't Work Or Do Anything It Ruined My Life ..... Can I Still Join The Army.?

Im 29 and considering joining later this year

I feel if you’re married you shouldn’t join.. your family is far more valuable than serving these political dick heads.. it’s not worth losing that bro.. that wasn’t wise.. always join young and single so nobody else is affected.

I’m 30 and I was thinking it’s too late 🙄

Tried for full active back in 08 but the recruiter wasn't thrilled about my age so he suggested the reserve. So I joined the ARNG at 32 19K, did OSUT at FT Knox. Then at age 34 did a tour in Iraq OIF 09-10. So hats off to you Victor and to all who are joining later in life. It's a challenge but it's a honor to become a soldier and being at veteran. Remember only 1% of the population signs that dotted line. God bless USA and for anyone joining later in life.

Is that the gulf war uniform?, they still wear those?

please make a video about what to do to prepare physically

Im 35 and im tired of working like a slave in a warehouse, id rather live life and do something extreme, even if it means i might die. Life is too short to not do cool things

I’m 31 turning 32 wife pregnant thinking about joining for my family. Thank you for the info!
