Time is only up for enlisted at 30 years and for officers at 62 years of age...
It is in the enlistment contracts, mine stated that I was obligated to serve 6 years even though my enlistment was 4 active. But now it has been increased to an 8 year program.
Retirees know that they are obligated to 30 years service but may retire as early as 20 but remain in this pool.

Better than drafting and better than being under staffed.
I agree it will hurt his bid for re-election.
