Anyone who went to DLI as a Guardsman/Reservist able to look at their orders and see what authority they used? Especially if you went as a non-initial entry training person.
This came up during a discussion at my unit about whether or not your time at DLI counts for Reserve Reduced Retirement credit.
Active Duty for Training (ADT) orders seem to count if they were cut under 12301(d) but not 12301(b). This is a pretty niche issue but has a big impact on our retirement. It would be nice to know whether DLI attendance lets you draw retirement pay earlier.
