The mandatory retirement age for active-duty Army officers is 62. However, this can be increased to 67 if the person is in a mission critical job. That job all depends on what those higher up are in need of at the time. Communications specialists are generally mission critical, however any position can be critical if the Army is in short supply of them. One year, it could be helicopter pilots, the next might be Special Forces medics. It depends on the needs of the Army.
