The U.S. Army has quietly raised the maximum enlistment age from 34 to 42, effective March 20, 2026.

The change applies to both first-time applicants and those with prior military service.

Also buried in the same update: the Army is eliminating the waiver requirement for a single marijuana conviction or drug paraphernalia conviction.
