What is the maximum age to join the US military?
By federal law (10 U.S.C., 510), the minimum age for enlistment in the United States Military is 17 (with parental consent) and the maximum age is 42. This is to ensure than anyone who enlists on active duty can be eligible for retirement (20 years of service) at the mandatory age of 55 (60 in some cases). However, DOD policy allows the individual services to specify the maximum age of enlistment based upon their own unique requirements. The individual services have set the following maximum ages for non-prior service enlistment: Active Army - 42 Army Reserves - 42 Active Air Force - 27 Air Force Reserve - 34 Active Navy - 34 Naval Reserves - 39 Active Marines - 28 Marine Corps Reserve - 29 Active and Reserve Coast Guard - 27 However, prior service enlistees can receive an "age waiver." In most cases, the amount of age that can be waived depends upon the amount of time the individual previously spent in the military. For example, let's say that an individual has four years of credible military service in the Marine Corps and wants to join the Air Force. The Air Force could waive the individual's maximum enlistment age to age 31 (Maximum age of 27 for the Air Force, plus four years credible service in the Marines). For the Marine Corps, the maximum age of enlistment for prior service is 32, after computing the prior-service age adjustment. For the Army National Guard, the maximum age for non-prior service enlistment is age 39. For the Air National Guard, it's 34. For prior service, the maximum age is 59, as long as the member is able to complete 20 years of creditable service for retirement by age 60.

How old is the average American?
There are about 308,745,000 people in the US in 2018. The median age was 37.9 in 2016 according to the US Census Bureau. In the past, the rise in median age was largely driven by the decrease in infant and childhood mortality. The was first from sanitation and later from immunization and new medications. Now the median age is mostly rising because decreasing birth rates, increasing longevity and the aging of the Baby Boom generation.The median continues to rise as the baby boom generation ages and the fertility rates continues to go down. It rose from 35.3 years on April 1, 2000, to 37.9 years on July 1, 2016. Unless we increase immigration this trend will most likely continue. This is what has happened in many countries that have low immigration and birthrates. Italy has a median age of 45.9 and Japan has one of 46.3. The number of people age 65 and over grew from 35.0 million in 2000 (12.4%), to 49.2 million in 2016 (15.2%).In some places in the US the median age is older or younger. There is a huge difference from place to place which is disguised by the median number overall. The country with the oldest median age is 67.1 and the one with the lowest is 22.7 years old.The median age in Maine is the highest in the nation, 44.6 years. The next oldest sates are New Hampshire, Vermont, West Virginia and Florida. The states with the lowest median age are North Dakota, Texas, Alaska, DC and Utah was the youngest at 30.8.66.7% of the counties in the US got older in the year 2016. In 2016, two counties had median ages over 60: Sumter, Fla. (67.1 years), and Catron, N.M. (60.5 years). Charlotte Co, Fla is 58.8 and Alcona Mich is 58.1The counties with the lowest median ages were: Chattahoochee County, Ga. (24.4); Todd County, S.D. (24.4); Radford city, Va (24.0); Kusilvak Census Area, Alaska (23.6), Madison County, Idaho (23.2); and Lexington city, Va. was the lowest. (22.7)To compare this to countries that are further along in this trend look at Italy and Japan.This is Italy.This Japan.
What is the average age of US Army soldier?
I’m not aware of any published statistics to that level of fidelity. The go to reference for this kind of question is the demographics published by the Army. This is the 2014 version - http://download.militaryonesourc... .Based on the age data starting at page 35 and personal experience, I’d guess the average age is somewhere in the mid 20s. A large number of Soldiers join right after high school, serve four years and get out, so that reflects the 46% under 25 rate (my guess is 30% of those are 22 and under.) If you join at 18 and retire at 20 years, that’d be an average age of 28. Most don’t retire, so that’d push it lower, and there are some exceptions (like me at 46 and still serving) that push it up.
What are the typical ages for the grades in US schools?
Well actually it depends on their birthday.So usally to start kindergarten you must be age 5 before October 1st.So that means the September born child will be just about 5 while the October born child will be almost 6 when they start kindergarten.Elementary schoolKindergarten everyone start off 5. And if there birthday is between October-June they'll turn 6 during that year. While if your born in July-September you will remain age 5.1st grade everyone start off 6. And if there birthday is between October-June they'll turn 7 during that year.Now I sum to up and made things easier.Then it goes like this.2nd grade age 7–83rd grade age 8–94th grade age 9-105th grade age 10-116th grade age 11-12So elementary school is k-6 usally. So students in elementary are between the ages 5-12.Middle school/junior highNo one call it junior high anymore. But some do if it has a 3 year program and if 6th grader are in there. But if it just 7th-8th it usally just call a middle school.Junior high used to be grade 7-9. Then 9th grade was removed and places change there name to middle school. Some even added 6th grader even though 6th grader are to young for middle school.7th grade age 12-138th grade age 13-14So middle school is 7th-8th which means students are between the ages of 12-14High schoolYou often hear freshman, Sophomore, Junior, SeniorFreshman = 9th gradeSophomore= 10th gradeJunior = 11th gradeSenior = 12th grade9th grade age 14-1510th grade age 15-1611th grade age 16-1712th grade age 17-18So high school is 9th grade-12th grade. So students are between the ages of 14-18.High school used to be 3 years with only 10th-12th. But now 9th grader was added so now it 4 years.College you go after high school.13th-16th grade but no one call it grades. But anyway they're also referred as freshman-senior.Freshman age 18-19Sophomore age 19–20Junior age 20-21Senior age 21-22So college student is between age 18-22.However anyone can attend college so even people age 60,75,80 can attend however majority college students are between age 18-22.
What would be the average age of a Sergeant major in the US Special Forces ?
1. I looked this up many months ago and found that the average time in service was 23 years. That would make the average age between 41-58. I know Officers can stay till 62. Not sure if there is a 30 and out for enlisted. 2. There has not been an enlisted pilot since the early days of Viet Nam. Warrants and commissioned Officers only. He could fly rotary on his own dime but the Army would never allow that. Some pilots will let crew chief have some stick time, at least in my day they did. 3. He would have only 6 - 10 peers. CSM at BN, Regiment/Brigade and SOC HQ. There are not that many units in Army SF and Marine SOC (MARSOC) only has 2 BN and a Brigade type HQ above them, that means 3 SGM at most and possibly some Master Gunnery Sgt's (also E9). 4. A SGM is a staff position in Regiment/Brigade/Division/Corps/Army/Arm... Group. Command Sgt. Major is a command position in the same structure but add Battalion. (just below Reg/Brigade) Never have seen a plain SGM at BN. CSM rank has a added oak leaves around the star and we addressed them as Command Sgt. Major unless he said CSM was OK. I would say a bit of a rewrite is in order. SSG US Army 73-82 Edit: Jerry (Master Chief or Command Master Chief) is dead on with the minimum age. The stats I found in the past were average years in before making E9. I think 17 years is minimum for the Army and would require time in grade waivers. Not sure about the Navy.
What is the normal age of college freshmen in the U. S.?
If someone goes straight to college campus from high school, the typical age of the incoming freshman in a U.S. college is 18 or 19. Most start Kindergarten when they are 5 years old and continue through 12th grade. My oldest son was born in May 1995, started Kindergarten in Sept 2000, graduated from high school in June 2013 and started college in Sept 2013 at age 18. Some exceptions - * If the child's birthday would make them very young compared to their peers in the class, some parents hold their child back a year * Some teens don't start college right after graduating high school, so they may wait a year or two or more to start college. A lot of "older" people are going back to get their college degree also. * A smaller number of people start college younger that 18 because they are super smart and fly through high school. Also, I assume you mean a campus-based college program, not an online college degree. If you mean online, the age of the average freshman would be considerably older than 18 or 19. Online degrees are catching on with younger people, but online has great appeal to adults who can't or don't to want to make it to the classroom because of work and/or family. I know this because I do a lot of work in the higher ed market.
What percentage of people live past age 80?
The answer is fairly complex, as it also has a lot to do with when you're born.Among those who are presently 80 years old (born in 1935), 40% of men and 57% of women are still around. The stats are clearly skewed in favor of women, though it should be noted that this demographic were the primary candidates for involvement with the wars in Korea and Vietnam.Among those who are presently 50 years old (born in 1965), 56.5% of men and 67.1% of women can expect to see eighty candles on their birthday cakes.Things are just a tiny bit more optimistic for near-millennials, with 60.3% of men and 70.4% of women likely to reach their 80th birthdays. Barely 3% better odds than those thirty years their seniors.Not a great deal of difference among newborns, though things are beginning to shape up for men. 63.7% of boys and 72.8% of girls born this past year will live long enough to look forward to the 22nd century.
What was the average age of the american colonists in 1775?
It's E. Sounds wrong, but Americans were a youthful people and they tended to have a lot of children (Ben Franklin came from a family of 17 kids). At the time, the American population was doubling at an explosive rate of every 25 years.
What is the retirement age for the US Federal Judges?
They have no mandatory retirement age; they can serve until the die. They may retire at age 65 if they have 15 or more years of service. They can also opt for senior status which allows them to continue in the judgeship with a reduced case load, then take full retirement later.
