All Branch Topic (ABT) Stop Loss Anyone?

[Neogenesis]

What do you all think? With as much crazy stuff that has gone on in the last few weeks, you think there is the potential this comes to fruition? Especially in the medical corps/critical specialties?

Pentagon considers new moves, including Stop Loss program, to maintain force amid coronavirus crisis

If approved, the measures under discussion would seek to ensure the military doesn't undergo a dangerous contraction, and they follow other steps to maximize the Pentagon's virus response capability.

Yes there will likely be a stop loss and it will impact more than just medical corps/critical specialties. It will impact any MOS/AOC with a gap in the training cycles.

If you have already signed a contract, for either residency or employment, you should not voluntarily rescind separation. Doing so knowing that your orders would be extended or that new orders would be cut for duty could be considered an act of bad faith by the parties with whom you have made a contract. Those parties expect you to be available as you represented yourself to be. If a government order imposes a stop-loss and by statute voids your contract, that is not your doing or an act in bad faith.

So, does anyone know what exactly retire/retain means? I had a dental officer that told me you get both active duty pay and 1/2 of retired pay. I can find no mention on the web if this is true. I only see that you don't actually get our DD214 until after you finish the extended retain period. I did see that Navy is asking anyone that is retiring between now and Dec to consider being retire/retain until the end of the year. But just curious if the pay gouge was true or false. My gut tells me that is a sea story. Thanks for any info!
