If you do 20 years AD service under BRS, will you begin receiving your pension as soon as you ETS? 2021-03-21T21:50:59-04:00 CPT Private RallyPoint Member 6842703 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I know that in the traditional retirement this is the case but is it the case under the BRS as well?

The difference is that you only get 2% per year credit for pay based on your high three years. So you basically will get 40% of your top three years instead of 50% under a traditional retirement. Hopefully you took advantage of the savings option too.
