There’s no Sergeant Major of the Army?
“The Armed Forces Retirement Home is funded by 50 cents deducted from all military enlisted members’ pay each month, and only former enlisted servicemembers may reside here.”
Somewhere in my career I read that pay and allowances forfited by enlisted through courts-martial action also goes the the Armed Forces Retirement Home. Don’t know if that is true.
In my career I never heard anyone complain about the .50 deduction from their pay to fund this home. Although I did hear one NCO question whether the deduction qualified as a charitable deduction for his taxes. Apparently, the $6.00 was enough to move him into a lower tax bracket.
