Federal time applied to military retirement?

0

Q: I know there is a military time buy back process so military time can apply toward civilian retirement. If I have federal time, can I apply that toward a military retirement if I join the military? Or does it only go one way?

A: No, you can’t apply your federal civilian time toward a military retirement. It only goes one way.
