  2. No.

  3. Nope, not too short.

    And to Fudge Dragon, I think the Question Asker is a guy not a girl...

  4. nope, not too short. they'll take ya!

    The Air Force has strict height requirements, but the army isnt like that. And 5'5" is above average for women anyway. There is a female in my squad right now that is 5'2".

  5. nope, when i was in basic, there were guys and girls that were 5' and they passed....,...

  6. No 5'5 is a fine height you don't have to worry

  7. It is about 5 feet

    See the lowest height in inches = 58 inches ~ which is around 5Ft

  8. i didnt think you could be to short to join the army

  9. height does not matter, google herman davis one of general pershings top heroes of ww1

  10. height ok  dont worry  go ahead

  11. No my sister was 5'3 and she got in just fine. The only way they would reject is if you are overweight and in that case you would just have to lose a few pounds before they would let you in. GO FOR IT and GOOD LUCK! i have alot of family members in the army.

  12. it doesn't matter about height it matters about if your going to take the elements that are thrown at you in combat.

  13. I don't think it depends on your height unless maybe your abnormally short

  14. I don't think that is true, I work for the military and I've seen plenty of military members of all branches and ranks shorter than 5 feet, men and women alike. It will take more than your height to be rejected. Good Luck.

  15. no ,if u r really interested log omn to career in army

  16. THE HIEGHT IS NOT SHORT............AS THE LOVE AND SERV(ICE) FOR THE ARMY MATTERS MORE THAN THE HEIGHT.......

  17. Not to worry the minimum height is 5 ft I believe.
