For the Officers that went the OCS route to commission, how common was it to have older soldiers (33<) in your class?

I was one of them. Commission at 33 years 9 months. At that time, able to do a 12-minute 2-mile and max out by push-ups and sit-ups. Our Honor Graduate was a former drill sergeant who did our Cadence calls and he graduated one week before his 35th birthday. I know he made lieutenant colonel or higher. It may not be common in the active component but I came in through the California Army National Guard. Here I was at my Fort Knox Captain's career course in 2003.

I thin in 1967, the top age was 28. There were a couple of guys in my OCS class who were twenty eight I believe. The youngest was eighteen and he graduated six months later and got his commission.

Samuel, I was not an Officer; however, I would Not worry about having older Soldiers in your class: at All. I would imagine that younger Soldiers are the "norm"'; in OCS. 2LT (Join to see)
