USMC5811 Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 No retro yet, my AB8 letter states effective date 01 Feb, 2013, what gives? medically retire from the Air Force 01Jan 2011. Congrats again! Don't worry about the date on the AB8, it changes each month to show the last VA payment date ie., it will change to 01 March 2013...once we are in March. The date that counts is the effective date which will be located in the paperwork you receive in the big brown/white envelope you'll receive. Thanks for your service!
