Summary
The conversation discusses the blended retirement system (BRS) and its components, including the pension, TSP match, and continuation pay. The BRS was implemented in 2018 to modernize military compensation and retirement. The pension part of BRS is similar to the legacy system, requiring 20 years of service and basing the pension on the highest three years of pay. However, the multiplier was reduced from 2.5% to 2% per year. The BRS also introduced a TSP matching component, where service members can receive a match for their contributions. Additionally, continuation pay was added as a retention tool, allowing service members to receive a lump sum in exchange for four more years of service.
