Morrison joins the military

Life, Milestone

2039

"At his first opportunity, a young Jack Morrison enlisted in the American Armed Forces to defend his country in the Omnic Crisis." source: skins Commando: 76, Night Ops: 76 source: Uprising https://playoverwatch.com/en-us/news/19809396/   If Jack is b. 2021 and enlists when he turns 18, he enlists in 2039. If Jack is 55 years old at the Recall, the Recall occurs in 2076.


https://playoverwatch.com/en-us/news/19809396/   "At eighteen, Morrison packed his bags and joined the military. He had planned to serve a brief stint in the armed forces and then return home to the family farm, but his work ethic and courage caught the eye of the military brass. Before long, he earned a coveted position in the government's controversial and still-classified (but widely acknowledged) "soldier enhancement program." Military scientists shaped Morrison and other inductees into the perfect soldiers, blessed with superhuman speed, strength, and agility.   Morrison and his fellow augmented soldiers would soon put their abilities to use with the advent of the Omnic Crisis. Across the globe, the omniums went rogue and churned out legions of militarized robots. The world reeled at the appearance of this new enemy. The omniums and their robot populations had originally been built to bolster manufacturing and create economic equality worldwide. Now, these marvels of modern science sought to overthrow the human race, posing one of the greatest threats to the survival of our species since the Cold War of the 20th century."   BUT in Uprising, he says: "I remember when the crisis broke out across America. It's why I enlisted, and why I signed up for the enhancement program."   IF he means that the Omnic Crisis is what caused him to enlist, the Crisis began in (or before) 2039.
