the age limits in WW1 varied by country. the United States, for example, required a man to be at least twenty-one to fight, where as in most European nations, countries were so desparate for men that even sixteen year olds could fight. in Russia and Germany, boys even as young as ten years old would fight, and men as old as seventy years old would serve too.
He was actually 15 years of age!
Its over 50 years old.
Very doubtful. Anyone old enough to serve in World War 1 would have been quite elderly by the time Vietnam began. Douglas MacArthur was a general in both world wars and Korea, but he was retired and died before regular US forces were committed to Vietnam.
Men who joined the war, particularly during World War I and World War II, typically ranged in age from late teens to their mid-twenties, with many enlisting around 18 years old. Draft laws often required men to serve once they reached a certain age, usually starting at 18. However, some older individuals also volunteered or were conscripted, depending on the needs of the military and the duration of the conflict.

Eurycleia was the name of Odysseus's faithful old nurse.
Dylan did not serve because when the war began, he was not old enough to serve. And by the time he WAS old enough to serve, he had already began his musical career, which was fate, as he said in a recent interview.
If you mean, was he ever in the military, the answer is no. Born in 1899, he was too young to be drafted in World War One, and WAY too old to serve in any meaningful capacity in World War Two.
18-25 I suppose is correct because a lot of young men and women like to serve our country!

Mr. Obama, like many members of congress born in the 1960s, did not serve in the military. By the time he was growing up, there was no longer a military draft, nor a war going on, since the war in Vietnam had ended.
