        The 1999 payment to the military retirement fund includes funds for
    the amortization of the unfunded liability for all retirement benefits
    earned by military personnel for service prior to 1985. The amortization
    schedule for the unfunded liability is determined by the Department of
    Defense Retirement Board of Actuaries. For fiscal year 1997 and beyond,
    the Board adjusted the amortization schedule to reflect a 50 year rather
    than a 60 year stream of payments. Included in the unfunded liability
    are the consolidated requirements of the military departments to cover
    retired officers and enlisted personnel of the Army, Navy, Marine Corps,
    and Air Force, retainer pay of enlisted personnel of the Fleet Reserve
    of the Navy and Marine Corps, and survivors benefits.

        Public Law 98-94 provided for accrual funding of the military
    retirement system and for the establishment of a Department of Defense
    Military Retirement Fund in 1985. The fund has three sources of income.
    The first is payments from the Military Personnel accounts, which cover
    the liability for future benefits accruing to current service members.
    The second is a payment from the general treasury to cover the accrued
    unfunded liability of current members and current retirees. The third
    source is income from the investment of fund balances from past and
    current payments into the fund.

        The status of the fund is as follows:

        The 1985 Defense Authorization Bill, Public Law 98-525, provided for

        The 1991 Defense Authorization Act, Public Law 101-510, created an
    Armed Forces Retirement Home Trust Fund to finance the United States
    Soldiers' and Airmen's Home and the United States Naval Home. The homes,
    which are currently in operation, are financed by appropriations drawn
    from the trust fund. The homes are administered by directors appointed
    by the Secretary of Defense with oversight provided by the Armed Forces
    Retirement Home Board. The Sheridan dormitory will be renovated in 1998
    and 1999. Also, a 110-bed medical facility will be designed in 1998 and
    construction will begin in 1999.

        The Armed Forces Retirement Home provides medical and domiciliary
    care and other authorized benefits for the relief and support of certain
    retired military personnel of the Armed Forces.

        The average number of members receiving domiciliary and hospital
    care are shown below:

        These appropriations provide for development and conservation of
    fish and wildlife and recreational facilities on military installations.
    Proceeds from the sale of fishing and hunting permits are used for these
    programs on Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Air Force bases charging such
    user fees. These programs are carried out through cooperative plans
    agreed upon by the local representatives of the Secretary of Defense,
    the Secretary of the Interior, and the appropriate agency of the State
    in which the installation is located.

        The Selective Service System continues to register men as they reach
    age 18, as required by law, and maintain a data base of registrant
    records. Should the Nation return to conscription for a national
    emergency, the agency would respond to a revised requirement to have the
    first draftees at military processing centers 193 days after a
    mobilization. Active Duty and Reserve Officers are being reduced to
    reflect the reduced readiness requirements.

        Through partnerships with America's Promise, corporations, and the
    Armed Services, the agency will expand its national initiative, ``Spirit
    of Volunteerism,'' to offer every young man that receives an
    acknowledgement card, almost two million annually, the opportunity to
    serve America today through volunteer military or civilian service.
    Important messages about public service opportunities will be
    incorporated into the existing registration acknowledgment process.

        In addition to improving business processes and registration
    compliance statistics, the Agency is moving to a more modern computer
    technology, new reengineering projects and revised methods of
    registration. Sources of registration are being expanded to include the
    Internet, telephone, and other means.
