Relatively new to USNR (I came off of active duty into a CNATRA SAU) and was looking for clarification on a few things. I tried google first, and didn’t really get the answers I wanted (could be weak Google fu).
The questions are about reserve retirement and they are thus:
1) For a good year, does the clock start on USN commissioning anniversary, or USNR entrance anniversary?
2) Do AFTP drills and ADT orders count towards retirement points?
I tried using this site: https://www.navy.mil/Press-Office/N...rstanding-a-good-year-for-reserve-retirement/
For question 1, the site ambiguously says “This is the Sailor’s individual Reserve year, which typically begins on the anniversary of their first day in the Reserve or date commissioned and ends the day prior to the anniversary.” The ‘or’ in there is throwing me off.
For question 2, the site says “You receive one point for each drill period performed (e.g., Inactive Duty for Training (IDT)); one point for each day of active service (e.g., Annual Training (AT), mobilization); and one for each day of funeral honors. You may also earn points from approved correspondence courses.” Since the site is geared toward the USNR in general and not for aviators, it left me hanging.
Sorry for the basic questions and thanks in advance.
