How does the navy count your time in the navy?
The Navy, like any military branch, only counts time that you are actually on active duty; e.g., if you're in the Delayed Entry Program, the time you spend in DEP doesn't count toward your service time. Essentially it comes down to the time you're actually working as a Federal Employee, which is what all Veterans on active duty are. Even Reservists who aren't called up to active duty only have their time counted toward retirement that they're actually drilling on weekends, on TAD 2 weeks per year, or are called up for extended active duty. As an example, I spent just over 8 years on active duty in the Navy, and 3 years in the Reserves at the Pentagon. Between those, I had only about 9 years total actual military time counted, even with several weeks on active duty during Desert Shield and Desert Storm. The Reserve point system lets Reservists accrue 1 point per active duty day, 2 for each drilling day, and 15 bonus points for each year you complete all requirements. You can read more about it at the link below.
What is the oldest you can join the army?
There are two ages for active duty in the military. The first is the enlistment age which is 35 in the Army, 27 in the Air Force, 34 in the Navy, 28 in the Marines and 27 for the Coast Guard. Once a person is enlisted the maximum age for an active duty person is 59 for all branches of the military.
What is the difference in active duty and inactive duty in the air force?
Active duty applies to a person who is in the Air force full time, it can also apply to a reservist who is performing active duty to meet his or her yearly obligation. Inactive duty usually applies to a member of the inactive reserve. They are not in a drill status, but could still be recalled to active duty.
