I’m OOOLLLDDD Air Force, and I thought retirement began at 20 years, not 19. We have some squiggly Air Force administration people speaking about 19 year retirements??????? Queerdom is reigning in America....Heaven help us.

Generally, except under extreme conditions, someone at 19 years TAFMS is considered in “Sactuary Status.” They may retire at 20 years with no problems. At times, someone is told to drop their papers or face courtmartial.
He isn’t a Veteran, but a “veteran” of 19 years. Everyone after completion of duties is a Veteran. The author choose poor wording. Retirement is still 20+ years.
