I recently medically retired on 28 Sep 2012. VA 100%, AF 60%. I understood since I only had 18 years and 2 months in the Aiir Force, I will either receive military pay or VA pay which ever one is more. I received a certified letter today from DFAS saying welcome to retirement and broke down my disability retirement pay at 60%. I have already submitted my DD214 to received VA pay. My question is, am I suppose to receive both checks with less than 18 years service?
