A bill to amend title 10 of the United States Code, to change the age limitation on eligibility for the Reserve Officers' Training Corps financial assistance program so as to take into account active service previously performed by students.

Summary

Permits the Secretary of the military department concerned to appoint as a cadet or midshipman, as appropriate, in the reserve of an Armed Force under his jurisdiction any eligible member of the program who will be under an age which is equal to 25 years plus the number of months of active service previously performed by such eligible member (but not over 28 years of age), on June 30 of the calendar year in which he is eligible for appointment as an ensign in the Navy or as a second lieutenant in the Army, Air Force, or Marine Corps, as the case may be. Provides that, upon completion of the four-year program, a cadet or midshipman may be appointed as a regular or reserve officer in the grade of second lieutenant or ensign, regardless of any other provision of law which may establish a maximum or minimum age at which persons may be so commissioned.
