    Officers are Leaders, what does their age have to do with anything?

    I know a few former Marines who have their BS or BA, and are too old to go Officer, but they would be damn good leaders. Whats wrong with a 35 or 40 year old Lt. or Capt? I know a Maj. thats 40 but has been in longer than I have and is still in, so I know the promotions are not fast. I don't get the age thing.

    I agree, mainly because I am 36 year old 2nd LT.

    Also Doc you are wrong on the losing pay issue, if you have 4 years active duty you get 01E pay instead of 01 pay which comes out to about an extra $1000 a month for the active duty folks.

    I call bs on that snide remark.
    I have seen older Marines run circles around teen-aged Marines.

    okay i didnt mean to be rude but that is a lot of age to have difference. it just seems that a 36 year old isn't going to have as easy a time as some 21 year old whop just got out of college
