Military Retirement Pay Veterans Benefits And Divorce Make For Tax Confusion
At the end of the day, this case is about how the benefit of converting from military retirement pay to veterans benefits should be divided.

The simple guiding principles should be that when in doubt you go with the disabled veteran, but, of course, those judges can’t just come out and say that. As a practical matter, divorce agreements allocating military retirement payment should probably explicitly address what happens if the pay is reduced due to veterans benefits.

To demand more in the name of morals is mere cant.
