An anecdote.
Back 7 months ago, we had our cake and coffee gathering in our unit/division for those of us whose B-Day falls on the month of Dec. There were 2 of us; myself and a SGM (Sgt Major) that was turning 53.
Today, he is doing his retirement out processing from the Army. Never came across anyone in active duty at that age.
Don't know what the max age is for the Army, or the military, before one can be retired or forced out due to age. Maybe this SGM served and separated, then reenlisted, who knows.
Nevertheless, I thank him for his service.
