Wits End Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 (edited) Ive done this before but this time I'd like to add a limit on classes. Please post the oldest guy you can remember attending UPT in the last 4 years. Search function has not been helpful with this inquiry. Thanks for the info. Cheers Edited July 6, 2011 by Wits End
juacey Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 At Corpus I had a Marine major in my class that had to be 33-35ish at least (he had several teenage children). He was a prior WSO who washed out at the end of T-45s and was subsequently sent to T-44s. Dude had like 300 UPT hours between T-34s, T-45s, and T-44s. On the Air Force side, 28 for an ANG prior loadmaster.
cragspider Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 I know in my old class at XL we had 2 guys who had turned 30 while in UPT. They were both prior E's.
amcflyboy Posted July 7, 2011 Posted July 7, 2011 (edited) Not in my class, but when I was back in UPT, there was a class about 4 months ahead of mine that had a female Major who was in her early 30's (this was back in 2004). Her story was simple, "$hit ton of waivers!" She had gotten picked up by an ANG unit, and was obviously prior service. Edited July 7, 2011 by amcflyboy
delos Posted July 7, 2011 Posted July 7, 2011 My class hasn't started yet, but I am 28 and currently the oldest in it.
Wits End Posted July 7, 2011 Author Posted July 7, 2011 Thanks guys keep em coming. I'm putting together some research to informally present my case. It's for a good cause. Thanks again
GovernmentMan Posted July 7, 2011 Posted July 7, 2011 At XL last year, we had an ANG guy (non-prior) turn 30 about a week into Phase II.
LJDRVR Posted July 7, 2011 Posted July 7, 2011 I'll have to get you a name, but at least one of the 1967 NASA scientist/astronauts was 40 when he went to UPT. Graduated number one in his class.
Wits End Posted July 7, 2011 Author Posted July 7, 2011 I'll be 32 in Sept and just wanted a feel for how old the "old" guy actually is these days ( hence the timeframe for school dates). Thanks again guys. Keep em coming.
TreeA10 Posted July 8, 2011 Posted July 8, 2011 33 yr old in my UPT class way back when. He was an Army then AF helo guy.

amcflyboy Posted July 8, 2011 Posted July 8, 2011 Not to hijack the thread...but....was she hot? Actually she was. She had a good head on her shoulders, and was the class SRO...who outranked the Flight Commander! Giggity... And no, I can't provide pictures.
Seriously Posted July 8, 2011 Posted July 8, 2011 Actually she was. She had a good head on her shoulders, and was the class SRO...who outranked the Flight Commander! Giggity... And no, I can't provide pictures. If you went through UPT at Columbus, I think I know who you speak of.
Danger41 Posted July 9, 2011 Posted July 9, 2011 Had a dude at upt that had to be moved up because he was going to turn 30 prior to his class date. In my Eagle class, I had two guys turn 30 during the course.
amcflyboy Posted July 11, 2011 Posted July 11, 2011 If you went through UPT at Columbus, I think I know who you speak of. Yup, Columbus.
