- As a reservist, to have a year count towards retirement, you have to earn a certain amount of retirement points. This is accomplished by performing such actions such as weekend drills, summer annual training, and military correspondence courses. Probably the quickest way to solve this problem is for him to attend a few weekend drills with a nearby reserve unit. Have him contact a nearby unit to find out more details. Helping out the recruiting office might be a good possibility.
- I do know that 5 years of reserves do not count as 5 years of active duty but not sure of what the ratio is. so I doubt he actually has 20 years in.
