Let's say I divorced my ex in 2000 and retired in 2010. The ex did not file paperwork in the one year time limit. I go to out processing and this JACKASS AT FT RILEY convinces me I had to start SBP on my ex. Is this a legal transaction? Should I get my money back?

By no means an expert, and I recommend that you contact one directly. That said, as best I remember it, if you were married for X number of years, or which you were in the military for Y of them, she may well be legally entitled to be covered under SBP. AS WELL AS have a claim against your retirement pay. In my case, my divorce specified that all my retirement was all mine. And we were well under the number of years for (former) spouse entitlement.
Given the nature of the question, and the generally pleasant nature of relationships with ex-spouses, I would go direct to legal, and not just any legal but someone who specializes in this area.

Thank you for the sage advice. SBP is esoteric with nuances that I do not understand. I will contact DFAS.
