[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 709772, member: 12570"] I put in just under 8 years and got a handshake and a DD 214 on my last day. The pension is nothing to write home about either and most end up working as they are usually in their mid to late 40's when they "retire". The healthcare, while free, is marginal at best. That being said I am an advocate for compulsory military service for everyone not enrolled in post seconday education when they turn 18. Yeah, I know, someone will say that isn't fair to those who cannot afford college, and you may be right, but there is financial aid available for those who need it (both of my kids received financial aid).
