The Reaper is right on.

This is a young man's game. It is possible to get selected during AIT with an age waiver. However, there are no guarantees. An older 11b, 11x, or other, would have to be at the top of his training class. Even then, if you drop or get dropped, you are right back where you started. You have to make the decision that you are willing to try no matter what happens.

that's got to be a comfort in the old age.
