Wow, 41 for the Navy. Just looked it up and they bumped it in 2022. Thats insane. Looking at the article it must have had a previous bump or my memory isn't recalling right. When I enlisted in 2012, the age limit was 32-ish with 35 for returning prior enlisted. I couldn't imagine being 40 and being almost 20 years older than other recruits. [1]
I looked it up because I would have sworn it was 39 for the Army. Someone I know had (unexpectedly) joined during his last possible year. Also about 2012 or so.
