18x Age Waiver Denied
Rangers, I started another thread in the Enlistment Forum, but I will add the information here as well. I required an age exception in order to get the 18x contract (missed the cutoff by less than 2 months) and it has been denied. My options now seem to be: 1) Push hard for an OPT40 contract 2) Get ...
