Default Am I too OLD!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello everyone
I'm new to USMILITARY. I'm a singlel female who have always want to enlist in the Army the problem I'm having is my age. You see I am 31 years old. I have been to school after school after school and I'm still not satisified. I've always wanted to travel and I thought the Army would be best for me as far as a career. Tell me what do you guys think.

your not too old, my husband went through training with a woman that was 35. if you want to travel make sure and do research on what posts have what jobs stationed there. speak with a recruiter, if they dont answer all of your questions go to another. and im not trying to discourage you but there are a lot of times that you dont move. for instance my husband and i are at fort hood and since it is his first duty station we will be here for about 7 years. with his job the only places we could go that are interesting are NY, germany, and colorado. just check into jobs and where you would be stationed before you commit, if thats what you want.

just wondering but where are you? my husband had probably the best recruiter, he's so good that the 10 years he has left will be recruiting, usually its only a few years. he also was in iraq with gen. patreaus. he can work miracles and doesnt lie. if you want i can refer you to him to ask questions.
