At any rate, the Donnie Wahlberg divorce is due to irreconcilable differences per the Houston Chronicle. Evidently, wife Kim Fey Wahlberg had enough of hearing about how sweet this New Kids On The Block (NKOTB) reunion is going to be (we guess).
Check your retirement points every year (ARNG/USAR). As a member of the Army Reserve/National Guard, you must have 20 years of service to be eligible for retired pay when you reach the age of 60. A qualifying year is one in which you earn a minimum of 50 retirement points. The reference for how retirement points are established can be found in AR 140-185. It is your responsibility to ensure that you achieve the minimum points required to achieve a qualifying year.
There are three ways to compute reserve retirement, which is based on when you first entered military service (not just reserve service). If you have 20 qualifying years of service and your initial date of entry is: â¦ Before Sept. 8, 1980, divide the number of retirement points by 360. That gives you the years of service (in active-duty years). Multiply that by 0.025 (2.5 percent). Multiply that by the basic monthly active-duty pay for your grade and years of service on the retired-pay effective date (normally your 60th birthday).
