CRSC Pay for Military Retirees

HR 1366 would authorize combat-related special compensation (CRSC) pay to any military retiree who is entitled to retired pay and has a combat-related disability. (Currently, a retiree must meet those requirements and also have completed at least 20 years of retirement-creditable military service.). HR 1366 would provide a special compensation rule for medical disability retirees retired under Chapter 61 with less than 20 years of service. This legislation would benefit 188,000 Chapter 61 medical disability retirees. Unfortunately, as written, HR 1366 would exclude reservists with at least 15 retirement years who are given constructive credit for 20 years for retirement because of their disability.
