You say it all in your post. I did a combination of 37 yrs federal service and military time. I spent 14 in the military so I am not getting two pensions. My neighbors (in Tennessee) think I get free health care and one actually told me that I pay a reduced federal income tax as a perk.

My main question to any if you on here who thinks that fed workers had it or still have it made tell me, where in the heck do you get your incorrect information?

Hopefully my Villages neighbors are much smarter than my Tennessee neighbors.
