I am 55, but am in kick-*** shape. Lots of people say I could whip Steven Segal's butt! How do I join the Special Forces???? I can do all of it: pushups, situps, pullups, jackoffs, Klaus Kinskis.

Ya know.. I bet if you go to a thrift shop, you could get a green beret and pretend that you are a special forces soldier. Besides, then you dont havta live thru the fun torture of training to be one! YAY
You can do anything you set your mind too! Be creative! ( ;

No, the age requirements are 20 to 30 for special forces..
If you had retired from the military, you may still be eligible to go back in depending on your health as long as you are under 60. You have to sign up and just wait on them to call if you are needed. The Army is currently accepting applications for recall from Category One and Two retirees. Category One is retired less then 5 years, and Two is retired more than 5 years..
Assignments last 12 to 18 months.. These guys have to be physically fit and able to perform the duties of their military skills worldwide...

Beray? Beret. And, yes, you are too old to become a hat. A green beret is a hat, or cap. Do you mean Special Forces soldier?

Max age for special forces and navy seals, if you are not already one, is 30. You are just a little over that maximum age.

No, at 55, I doubt that you will even be considered for any type of special forces school, regardless of how fit you think you are.

I don't think you can. Most people in special forces are 30 and are combat veterans.

Sorry, you are way too old. Heck I'm too old at to participate in missions. Pass along your passion to your son. Maybe he will go to BUDS and get his fins numbered.
