AI Summary
This bill, titled the "Improving the Enlisted to Officer Judge Advocate Program Act," proposes to amend existing law to allow enlisted members of the military to serve up to 10 years on active duty, an increase from the current 8 years, and still be eligible to attend law school with funding provided by the Department of Defense. This change aims to expand the pool of eligible candidates for the program that trains enlisted personnel to become judge advocates, which are military lawyers. The bill also makes technical adjustments to clarify the language regarding when a service member is considered to be receiving funding for educational expenses for the purpose of this program.
