My Army time counts toward my civil service time, so as of this year I am over 30 years of government service, so I am not really missing out on much besides PX and commissary, which I will be able to use for the next few years in Japan... My VA check matches what my retirement check would have been, so there are no regrets for me, as I left at 15 instead of being forced out like you stated happened to you.
