@JeremyRichard82 Thank you for looking into that. Did you post these on the Facebook groups too?

Here is some clarification from Grok. (It is AI, so grain of salt and all that) The figure used is your actual historical high-3 (high-36 average basic pay) from your service record/retirement era under the standard rules in 10 U.S.C. §§1406(b) or 1407 — not a recomputed "current" high-3 using today's pay tables. TCVA (H.R. 9237, Take Care of America's Veterans Act) Section 101 is the Major Richard Star Act language. It amends 10 U.S.C. §1414(b) for combat-related Chapter 61 disability retirees. For <20 years creditable service at retirement (most early medical retirees): You get the lesser of: Your actual Chapter 61 retired pay + VA disability compensation (no offset), or (Retired pay base under §1406(b)/1407 × the retired pay multiplier under §1409 as if you had 20 years creditable service under §1405) + VA disability compensation (no offset). The base itself is your actual high-36 from the months you served (the highest 36 months of basic pay you were entitled to during your real service). The "if 20 years" part mainly swaps in the 20-year multiplier (usually 50% under the high-3 system) instead of your disability percentage or actual years. Special rules in §1407(e) can deem short-service months as the high-36 for some disability retirees. This produces the dollar amount in current dollars (retired pay gets COLAs over time). That's why examples like "high-3 at 50%" produce a specific current figure like the $1,650 in the thread — it's your actual base × 50%.

@dpoddolphinpro Maybe since it’ll be coming in from the west it may have to do the turn to properly position it.

That 270° roll at the end is super sketchy. Ship needs more work before it comes in for a tower catch. That being said - the fact that a Ship got this far on the debut flight of this version is spectacular.

@WhaleFUD bra what even is that

MY VIEW IN DUBAI RIGHT NOW 💥 #Dubai I’ve 1000% never seen anything like this, wtf.

@ChildersRadio Wow, brings back memories.

I feel this picture on a deep level.

Because I was forced to watch this, now so are all of you.

@DiscussingFilm @AMCbiggums Either die a hero or live long enough to become the villain. RDJ, how about both?

@thejackbeyer Good video game too.

One of the best movies of all time. If you haven’t seen it, today is a good day to give it a try!

@MarcusHouse The pace will increase now that the base is complete. Fully erect in less than a month.

The scale of these #SpaceX projects are always mind blowing. The tower base has come together incredibly quickly don't you think? 🤯
