No one working for the government should be able to collect retirement untill they actually reach retirement. Even military, unless medical.
Sorry, but if you can worked, you should work. The idea of retirement was for financial security when your body couldn’t do that. retirement was supposed to last a couple years, not a couple decades.
The human body isn’t designed to retirement.
I know a man who retired from fire rescue as early as possible, who’s body went to crap. Her couldn’t walk far at all. I know another who waited until 84, and his mind was still in great shape, and body better than most 60 yo. Her only retired because of his wife.
I know which one I want to emulate.

Unt you vil voork!
people should be able to be active for 6 -8 yrs, then have the opportunity if they wanted to be in the guard or reserve,and pick up a reasonable,sane pension at age 60....
but no more lifers...its just insane to continue this system the way it is now...
