[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is he joining a unique (for lack of a better word) job? A friend became a navy chaplain later in life, after doing Yeats of civilian ministry. He went through OCS I believe.[/quote] New poster here-I imagine it has to be something like this. The military is just not hard up enough right now to take in new recruits for "unskilled" (for lack of better term) MOS. If OPs friend has a particular needed skill--for example if he is fluent in a middle eastern language, or maybe a physician or chaplain in a specific religion, he may be able to enlist or get a commission at age 42...if he just wants to enlist and go into infantry or something...it's unlikely.[/quote] But the military isn't hard up for recruits, there have been major reductions in force, including non-renewal of contracts and options for early retirement.
