Why does your comment sound sarcastic?

The raising of the age cap gives older former military members ,that got out during the Clinton years ,an opportunity to serve their country again.

My husband just signed up to rejoin the Army ,after finding out about the raise in age ,he is 39 and welcomes the opportunity to serve his Country once again and I am proud of him!

He would have done it sooner ,but the age cap didn't allow it!

Because it is sarcastic. People ARE living longer healthier more fulfilling lives. Considering this, raising the age is practical.

Hey, Good for your husband! That's wonderful!
