Army loosens enlistment rule for dependents
Army updates policy allowing eligible individuals with dependents to enlist for two years into the regular Army for the OCS college program and the Warrant Officers Flight Training, removing the prior limit of one dependent. The change follows Beggs a Vietnam era case where his dependent status affected his own enlistment path. Beggs now serves as a warrant officer pilot in Vietnam flying resupply missions for the 161st Assault Helicopter Company.
