Highlights

The Air Force requested a decision concerning the recomputation of two retired generals' military retired pay at a higher rate on the basis of their advancement on the retired list from the grade of lieutenant general to general. GAO held that: (1) promotion of service members on the retired list should not serve as a basis for recomputation of their military retired pay absent a statute specifically authorizing such an increase; and (2) there was no statute or other provision for recomputation predicated on their advancement on the retired list. Accordingly, the Air Force should not recompute the officers' pay at the higher rate.
