To figure out if an enlisted Space Force member qualifies for voluntary retirement, the government adds up all their active service in the armed forces. Time that had to be made up under a separate law doesn't count.

(a) Years of Active Service. To decide whether an enlisted Space Force member can retire under section 20603, the government computes their years of service by adding together all their active service in the armed forces. (b) Reference to Section Excluding Counting of Certain Service Required to Be Made up. Time a member had to make up under section 972(a) doesn't count toward this total.
