Army Ranger age requirements?
I understand that the Army recently raised the enlistment age to 42 (I am 36) but does that age increase apply to the 11x option 40 contract as well? Is it an across-the-board adjustment, or will I need an age waiver? I can max-out the 17-21 PT test and I'm still in very good shape so I know I'm healthy enough to enlist. Just wondering if the Rangers were biased against the "older guys".
**Edit** I know there is no particular age limit to be "Ranger Qualified". I'm talking about joining the Ranger Regiment.

I know a guy who became a Ranger at 36 too, and he didn't need a waiver. Talk to your recruiter.
