    You have to do 20 years active for the full retirement. 20 years guard means you get retirement when you turn 55 or whatever. Unless you get medically retired and such.

      I wondered about that. But he got some sort of deal at 39, which would be 20 years combined Army and Guard. He joined in 1989. Things different then?
