If you're a member of the Uniformed Services who will have served fewer than 12 years (or National Guard and Reserve with fewer than 4,320 retirement points) on December 31, 2017, you will have an important decision to make between January 1 and December 31, 2018: You must choose whether to stay with your current retirement system or move to the new BRS.

- The much-anticipated August 21, 2017 total eclipse of the sun – with the sun being completely blocked out by passage of the moon – will be initially visible in Oregon and continue across North America to South Carolina. This will be a spectacular sight, but caution should be taken to not damage your sight. There is only one safe way to look directly at the sun, whether during an eclipse or not and that is with special-purpose solar filters. These solar filters are used in “eclipse glasses” or in hand-held solar viewers. They must meet a very specific worldwide standard known as ISO 12312-2.
