6 of the 11 were in the 1960s when we really didn't make much, I'm not sure it is the same as the buy back, that was why I told him to contact OPM.

I'm very disappointed that the TRICARE is going to get much more expensive for retired people. All those mid-watches, deployments, etc...just seems wrong...
