I can't say for certain what the height requirement is for pilots in the USAF or USN, but per an email from the ANG, here is the height requirements for pilots:

The height requirements for flying are less than 77" and greater
than 64".  Additionally the sitting restrictions are less than 40" and
greater than 33 or 34".
I hope this answers your question.
