After serving 20 years in the military you can file or put in a retirement packet, once accepted you maintain you medical and dental benefit's, 50% of you base pay for the remainder of your life regardless of age and maintain access to any military installation.

Not entirely true. There are currently (as of 2010) 3 separate retirement plans for the Military. Not all of them gives you 50% at 20 years. Also, there is NO dental coverage unless you pay for it. Lastly, medical coverage at Military Treatment Facilities is not free. You pay for Tricare Prime (currently $460.00 per year). If you have Tricare Standard it is cost shared at the rate of 80% for Tricare and 20% for you. Tricare Standard has no annual fee.

officers can resign their commissions, but enlisted personal cannot. enlisted have to screw up bad, refuse to follow orders, present some mental or physical ailment to preclude further military service. depending on reason, a honorable discharge (the best) may be forthcoming or, good of the service, general discharge or undesirable discharge may be confered on a solder which are not good. Worst, a dishonorable discharge.................hang in there, all things come to an end.......
