Terms of Use

Last updated: October 26, 2026

These terms cover this page. I run it. I am Zach, a U.S. Army recruiter who posts as @armyrecruiter.zach. This is a personal recruiting resource. It is not an official U.S. Army or Department of Defense website. By using this page, you agree to these terms.

1. What this site is

This page helps people compare the Army, college, and the trades with real numbers. It connects them with the official U.S. Army Eligibility Form. It is not the Army. It does not enlist anyone. It does not speak for the Department of Defense.

2. No promises

Pay figures, tuition help, job counts, and timelines on this page are estimates for comparison. They come from the sources named on the page. They change. Nothing here guarantees pay, a bonus, a specific job, an assignment, tuition help, or any outcome. Your options depend on your qualifications and what is open at the time you apply. *Eligibility varies. Sending the eligibility form does not enlist you, sign you up for anything, or commit you to anything.

3. Your responsibility

Do not put sensitive information in any field on this page. No Social Security numbers. No medical details. No financial account numbers. If you are 17, enlisting needs written parent or guardian consent. Anything you send through the question box is used only as described in the Privacy Policy.

4. Photos and content

The photos on the About page show real soldiers I helped enlist. They are not stock images. Please do not reuse, repost, or put them in ads. The words, numbers and design on this site are mine. Short quotes with credit are fine. Copying whole pages is not.

5. Links to other sites

This page links out to the official Army eligibility form, to social platforms, and to sources. Those sites have their own terms and privacy practices. This page is not responsible for them. A link is not an endorsement of everything on the other site.

6. Changes and contact

These terms may change as the page changes. The date at the top says when they last did. Send questions about these terms to me on Instagram at @armyrecruiter.zach or at [email protected].
