The 2008 payment to the military retirement fund includes
funds for the amortization of the unfunded liability for all
retirement benefits earned by military personnel for service
prior to 1985. The amortization schedule for the unfunded
liability is determined by the Department of Defense Retirement Board of Actuaries. Included in the unfunded liability
are the consolidated requirements of the military departments
to cover retired officers and enlisted personnel of the Army,
Navy, Marine Corps, and Air Force, retainer pay of enlisted
personnel of the Fleet Reserve of the Navy and Marine Corps,
and survivors’ benefits.
The 2004 National Defense Authorization Act created additional benefits for certain retirees who receive disability compensation from the Veterans’ Administration and moved the
responsibility for payments under the Combat Related Special
Compensation program to the Military Retirement Fund. Any
additional funding requirements for retirees with service prior
to 1985 will be included in this payment.

Public Law 98–94 provided for accrual funding of the military retirement system and for the establishment of a Department of Defense Military Retirement Fund in 1985. The fund
has three sources of income. The first is payments from the
Military Personnel accounts, which cover the accruing costs
of the future retirement benefits being earned by today’s service members. The second source is interest on investments
of the fund. The third source is made up of two payments
from the general treasury. The first Treasury payment covers
a portion of the accrued unfunded liability for all the retirees
and current members who had earned benefits before the
accrual funding system was set up. The second Treasury payment covers the liability for concurrent receipt of military
retired pay and disability compensation paid by the Department of Veterans’ Affairs. This benefit was added in the 2004
National Defense Authorization Act (P.L. 108–136).
The status of the fund is as follows:

Public Law 106–398 provides for accrual funding for health
care to Medicare-eligible retirees. The statute establishes an
accrual health care fund which has three sources of funding.
The first is contributions from employing agencies, which
cover the liability for future benefits accruing to current service members. The second is an annual payment from the
general treasury on the accrued unfunded liability and the
third source is income from the investment of fund balances.

The 1985 Defense Authorization Bill, Public Law 98–525,
provided for the accrual funding of certain education benefits
for active duty military personnel under the authority of
Chapter 30, Title 38 U.S.C., and to selected Reserve personnel
under the authority of Chapters 1605 and 1607, Title 10
U.S.C. Public Laws 100–48 and 108–375 made this program
permanent. The fund is financed through actuarially-determined Government contributions from the Department of Defense military personnel appropriations and interest on investments. Funds are transferred to the Department of Veterans Affairs to make benefit payments to eligible personnel.

The agency has a currency fluctuation account that insulates its appropriation’s buying power from changes in exchange rates. The current exchange rate of $1=0.75 Euros
to the U.S. Dollar would require $11.2 million for foreign
currency fluctuations. The proposed amended appropriations
language would allow updates of the foreign currency exchange rates and requirements as needed throughout the
year.

These appropriations provide for development and conservation of fish and wildlife and recreational facilities on military
installations. Proceeds from the sale of fishing and hunting
permits are used for these programs at Army, Navy, Marine
Corps, and Air Force installations charging such user fees.
These programs are carried out through cooperative plans
agreed upon by the local representatives of the Secretary
of Defense, the Secretary of the Interior, and the appropriate
agency of the State in which the installation is located.

The Selective Service System (SSS) continues to register
men as they reach age 18, as required by law, and maintain
an active data base of registrant records. Should the Nation
return to conscription for a national emergency, the Agency
would have the first draftees at military processing centers
193 days after a mobilization. The Agency also manages a
program for the Nation’s conscientious objectors. In cooperation with the Department of Defense, Reserve Force Officers
participating in the SSS program are being reduced to 250
in FY 2007 and 200 in FY 2008 to reflect reduced readiness
requirements and the Military Conversion initiative.
The SSS will continue to strengthen its partnership with
the Armed Services. The Agency will continue its national
initiative to offer every young man that receives a registration
acknowledgment, almost two million annually, the opportunity to volunteer for the military services.
In addition to improving its business processes and national
registration compliance statistics, while helping to sustain an
‘‘all volunteer’’ military recruiting effort, the Agency is incorporating advanced information technology architectures to ensure faster, more accurate registration processing and better
customer services via the Internet. Besides assisting in the
adjustment to the FY 2008 request of $22 million, employment savings (from attrition to 139 FTEs in FY 2007 and
FY 2008) and other savings will be directed to additional
automation improvements.
