Resolved Question: When must you retire from the military?

I'm going to be enlisting in the Marines wanting to be Infantry. I'm have no idea of I'm going to want to make a career in the Marines or not. And while I was thinking about it, it occurred to me that the age range to enlist is fairly low. And to be able to retire from the Military and get retirement pay, you have to serve for at least 20 years. So, I thought since the age range to join the Marines, or any Military branch, at least as far as I can tell, is less than 20 years, so, its obvious t

Resolved Question: Military Retired (20yrs) and VA Disability Lump Sum?

I retired from the Navy 3 years ago after 20 years of active duty service. I receive 10% disability from the VA at $123 a month which is then subtracted from my retirement pay.
I work with many former military members who did not retire, but were medically discharged. Some have told me that they were given the option of a lump sum for their VA disability if they were at 10 or 20%. I was never given this option. Is it too late for me to ask for it?

Resolved Question: Is gay marriage a matter of equality or failed requirement?
(Sat, 24 Jul 2010 23:38:16 GMT)
And one does indeed have to qualify for marriage; just as one has, for example, to qualify for a pension or a military medal. People who have not reached the age of retirement don’t qualify for a pension, people who don’t serve in the armed forces don’t qualify for a military medal. It’s not a question of equality but requirement. A human right is intrinsic, a social institution is not.
The four great and historic qualifications for marriage always have been number, gender, age and blood. T
