    No, they are not the same.  There are three non-disability retirement plans currently in effect for active duty retirees. These are 

     

    • Final Pay plan, 
    • High-36 Month Average plan, and 
    • Military Retirement Reform Act of 1986 (more commonly referred to as REDUX) plan.

    There are several types of retirement:

     

    • Regular Retirement
    • Reserve Retirement
    • Temporary Disability Retirement List
    • Permanent Disability Retirement List
    • Temporary Early Retirement Authority
