Just thought you had some new revelations. We have a neighbor who really wants to retire (a Major) next year, but is absolutely petrified that he'll be booted. Came back from Afghanistan in February, went TDY from Fort Carson, and just came home last month. They've bought a property in Texas, and now worried that he won't survive in rank to hit 20. The post has thousands of troops and there's been nothing but rumors everyday. God love 'em.
I certainly hope that anybody that has dedicated their lives in our military will be able to continue their service in the reserves if necessary. It's certainly a slap in these folks faces.
Heart....maybe you can tell me since I'm not sure, does any retirement accrue even if you don't hit twenty?
