Kia, The answer is no. In fact a person under the age of 18 is required to get parental consent.

Additonally I believe that a soldier is still required to have at a minimum a GED to enlist. Which would further preclude someone so young from enlisting.

I guess I am wrong, According to the Army Times Dated 100305
