Implementation of BRS is fast approaching Published Sept. 6, 2017 By Lieutenant General Maryanne Miller AFRC AFRC -- Reserve Citizen Airmen and Families, Implementation of the Blended Retirement System (BRS) is fast approaching! We owe you--our Reserve Citizen Airmen--resources to make an informed decision when the BRS election period begins in January 2018. Therefore, Personal Financial Counselors (PFCs) have been assigned to select installations to offer unbiased advice to Airmen as they weigh their personal financial goals. Please contact your Airman and Family Readiness Office to learn more about educational courses and one-on-one counseling sessions that are available to you. Together, we can effectively navigate the Defense Department's historic change to military retirement, ensuring all Airmen have the retirement portfolio that best serves their needs.
