It's hard to do. I was 43, over the age, but take into account the previous service (18 years previous), they knock years off for that, but they don't count training from back then, go figure.

And then there was the deaf thing. Bad loss in the 700-3000 hz band. -2.3 db. It took Freepers helping me write waiver letters and a waiver from USAFR Command for me to get back in.

Wound up costing me a marriage. Jim had to change my screen name, because my original lead back to my physical address, and opsec was important then.

It was worth it.
