New Retired Soldier Handbook available for all services
2024-10-31 08:00 - 17:00 (America/Chicago)
If you are old enough to remember the enthusiasm of Steve Martin’s character in “The Jerk” for getting his telephone listing, then let us share Mark Overberg’s enthusiasm for the 2025 Retired Soldier Handbook.
“I can’t match Steve Martin’s enthusiasm, but I’m excited each year when the Army Retirement Services Office publishes the new US Army Retirement Planning Guide and Retired Soldier Handbook,” Overberg recently posted on his LinkedIn post.
“If you’re retiring from the military in the next 3 years, the RETIREMENT PLANNING GUIDE is your deskside advisor for this trip to your new life as a retired service member.,” he added.
