The 2008 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. 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.
The 2004 National Defense Authorization Act created additional
benefits for certain retirees who receive disability compensation from
the Veterans' Administration and moved the responsibility for payments
under the Combat Related Special Compensation program to the Military
Retirement Fund. Any additional funding requirements for retirees with
service prior to 1985 will be included in this payment.

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 accruing costs of the future retirement benefits being earned by
today's service members. The second source is interest on investments of
the fund. The third source is made up of two payments from the general
treasury. The first Treasury payment covers a portion of the accrued
unfunded liability for all the retirees and current members who had
earned benefits before the accrual funding system was set up. The second
Treasury payment covers the liability for concurrent receipt of military
retired pay and disability compensation paid by the Department of
Veterans' Affairs. This benefit was added in the 2004 National Defense
Authorization Act (P.L. 108-136).
The status of the fund is as follows:

Public Law 106-398 provides for accrual funding for health care to
Medicare-eligible retirees. The statute establishes an accrual health
care fund which has three sources of funding. The first is contributions
from employing agencies, which cover the liability for future benefits
accruing to current service members. The second is an annual payment
from the general treasury on the accrued unfunded liability and the
third source is income from the investment of fund balances.

The 1985 Defense Authorization Bill, Public Law 98-525, provided for
the accrual funding of certain education benefits for active duty
military personnel under the authority of Chapter 30, Title 38 U.S.C.,
and to selected Reserve personnel under the authority of Chapters 1605
and 1607, Title 10 U.S.C. Public Laws 100-48 and 108-375 made this

transferred to the Department of Veterans Affairs to make benefit
payments to eligible personnel. The status of the fund is as follows:

The agency has a currency fluctuation account that insulates its
appropriation's buying power from changes in exchange rates. The current
exchange rate of $1=0.75 Euros to the U.S. Dollar would require $11.2
million for foreign currency fluctuations. The proposed amended
appropriations language would allow updates of the foreign currency
exchange rates and requirements as needed throughout the year.

The 1991 Defense Authorization Act, Public Law 101-510, created an
Armed Forces Retirement Home (AFRH) Trust Fund to finance the AFRH-
Washington and the AFRH-Gulfport Homes. The homes are financed by
appropriations drawn from the trust fund. In addition, the Department of
Defense will transfer the amount of $5.9 million in FY 2008 and $5.1
million (adjusted for inflation) annually thereafter to the Trust Fund
of the Armed Forces Retirement Home.
The AFRH Fiscal Year 2006 Performance and Accountability Report
displayed the significant progress of the AFRH over the past four years.
Due to damage caused by Hurricane Katrina, more than 400 residents
of the AFRH-Gulfport were temporarily relocated to the AFRH-Washington.
Public Law 109-148 appropriated $20.8 million to continue care for
Gulfport in AFRH-Washington. Public Law 109-234 appropriated $176
million for planning, design, and construction of a new facility for
Gulfport. Public Law 109-234 also transferred unobligated balances of
$45 million approved in Public Law 109-148, and funds provided in fiscal
years 1998 through 2004 for construction and renovation of the physical
plants at the United States Naval Home/AFRH-Gulfport. Total funds
appropriated for the project are approximately $236 million.
The AFRH provides medical and domiciliary care and other authorized
benefits for the relief and support of certain retired and former
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 at Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Air Force installations
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 (SSS) continues to register men as they
reach age 18, as required by law, and maintain an active data base of
registrant records. Should the Nation return to conscription for a
national emergency, the Agency would have the first draftees at military
processing centers 193 days after a mobilization. The Agency also
manages a program for the Nation's conscientious objectors. In
cooperation with the Department of Defense, Reserve Force Officers
participating in the SSS program are being reduced to 250 in FY 2007 and
200 in FY 2008 to reflect reduced readiness requirements and the
Military Conversion initiative.
The SSS will continue to strengthen its partnership with the Armed
Services. The Agency will continue its national initiative to offer
every young man that receives a registration acknowledgment, almost two
million annually, the opportunity to volunteer for the military
services.
In addition to improving its business processes and national
registration compliance statistics, while helping to sustain an ``all
volunteer'' military recruiting effort, the Agency is incorporating
advanced information technology architectures to ensure faster, more
accurate registration processing and better customer services via the
Internet. Besides assisting in the adjustment to the FY 2008 request of
$22 million, employment savings (from attrition to 139 FTEs in FY 2007
and FY 2008) and other savings will be directed to additional automation
improvements.
