Retired in 1995 with 17 years, 3 months and 6 days on an early out program. I was stationed at Ft. Riley for 4 years (1985-1989) and was post vet. Lived in a farm house just outside beautiful Dwight, Kansas. Used to round up the post's Buffalo herd on foot every year. Good times.
 
By day part-time police officer, at night plain-clothes security. I hate both and am trying to get into graduate school for Masters of Public Administration.

So glad I don't have to deal with Sarbane Oxley:grinno:



That has to rank as one of the most knee jerk reaction Acts Congress ever passed.
 
I sell crack. For a fee, I'll also inject it. And if you've got really deep pockets, Ill show you my crack.



Actually, Im a pre-med student. I make money on the side with detailing.

Dud you get full benefits on the early out program?





My brother has 10 in and 10 to go to get full benefits.
 
WilliamHBonney,



Yes I received full benefits. The Army downsized after Desert Storm/Desert Shield and allowed a few of us to voluntarily retire early. You don't get as much retirement as those that served a full 20, but you start your civilian career earlier. I enjoyed the Army, but I was ready to leave. :)

You should see it on the IT end. Total criminal robbery. I constantly get calls for "Project Managers that know how to implement SOX procedures" from innocent managers and CIO's. The PM's all end up working a year or so trying to get some file and e-mail retention policies in place, then they get an actual SOX audit or hire Deloitte as a independant autitor, the checkbooks come out. HELP, "WE NEED 5 PM's with SOX experience and 3 Win2k3 architects to get us out of this".



As soon as these small banks and hedge funds get the IPO bug, its total misery.

the guys that got the early out in the air force got full retirement benefits with a lower percentage retirement check....



when i retire form the air force in 2015 i will bring home roughly 2400 a month with my retirement check.....its good to know i will get that as soon as i retire at age 39 and not have to wait until im 60....



i figure between my retirement check, my wife being a dental hygenist and me owning a mobile detailing business when i retire at 39 i should be doing pretty damn good
 
The way that I figured it was the retirement makes the house payment and I have to work to eat. Allowed me to take some chances in business that I would of be able to take if I didn't have another income. Besides my wife just retired last year from Federal job. I retired in the same month that I turn 38 years old so it was nice feeling.
