Description

ARMFTIM7 indicates whether an individual aged 67+, who has ever served in the U.S. Armed Forces, was active-duty in February 1955 to February 1961.

Active duty does not include training for the Reserves or National Guard, but does include activation for service in the U.S. or in a foreign country, in support of military or humanitarian operations. The value of the final annual person weight (WTFA) for active duty military personnel is zero, so they are not included in national (i.e., weighted) estimates.
