Presidents Message

 

Message from New President: EOC Tony Little

Greetings, I am Tony Little EOC (RET), and your new Atlanta chapter president. The road that brought me here is filled with ironies, twists and turns that even Hollywood couldn‘t reproduce. For starters Bill Bradshaw has been recalled to active duty, hence my appointment. Please keep him and his family in your thoughts and prayers. Secondly my son Michael (NERA’S youngest member) is on active duty serving with our countries finest the USMC, and with that I have a vested interest into the care of our Maritime veterans. For the icing on the cake I served my entire 20 plus years on active duty. It was during my last 3 years while stationed with the Third Naval Construction Regiment, Marietta GA that I met SKCS Nick Marine (NERA National Vice president). During my tour with the 3 rd NCR I developed a deep appreciation for my reserve brothers and sisters. I saw first hand their sacrifice, passion, and sincere service to country. So with that I hope to bring the same level of service as chapter president. As a student of history, and one who likes to put my ear next to the rail road tracks I can say the following without doubt or hesitation, “Our brothers and sisters need us now more than ever”. If you are retired, you are never retired, and if you’re drilling one weekend a month you are a recruiter 24/7. Whether we give our time in service, our wisdom to our young, or a monetary support it will involve each and every one of us to getting our hands dirty.

Naval Reservists can now

use the Retirement Calculator

on the StayNAVY website.

 

The calculator will work for personnel eligible for either of the Reserve Retirement plans. Final Pay applies to service members who began service before September 8, 1980, or High 3 average that applies to service members who began service after September 8, 1980. The calculator calculates an estimated monthly and yearly salary beginning at age 60 based on the following criteria:

 

a) Years of active service
b) Current retirement points already earned
c) Estimated points that will be earned in subsequent years

 

Reserve personnel also have the option to see retirement pay for their current paygrade or future advancements in rank. Pay can also be displayed before or after Federal taxes have been paid.
