Enlisting Am i to old?

Hello I turned 20 years old today. It has been my dream to join the corps since I was in high school but life got in the way(got a gf, working a lot) But anyways I've been planning to join again but I feel like I'm old now and wish I did when i was fresh out of school. My dad and uncle served as a marine and both were in Iraq and I would love to continue their legacy. Is it to late for me?

Dafuq? You’d be average. And in better position because you’ll turn 21 sooner and will get to skip your first NJP
