6–6. Retired military personnel

Retired military should follow the same rules as active personnel, except that no organization or branch of the Army

will be shown. Show retired status after the grade as follows:

a. All Army personnel, active or reserve component, retired for service, age, or physical disability and all personnel

on the Army of the United States Retired List, including regular Army personnel and non-regular Army personnel on

the Temporary Disability Retired List will use “USA Retired” (for example, A. B. Smith, COL (USA Retired)).

b. All personnel on the Officers Honorary Retired List will use “U.S. Army Retired (Hon).”

c. All Army reservists assigned to the U.S. Army Reserve (USAR) Control Group (Retired) will use “USA Retired.”

d. Army retirees serving as DA civilians will not use or refer to their military grade or rank except when referring to

their personal retirement actions.
