COLA  Raise in 2022?

12/19/2021

Subject: Pension COLA

Are we to expect a COLA raise next  year in light of surging inflation ??
The answer is yes …exactly how much will not be known until approximately January 15, 2022.  From what we know currently know,  the COLA will be greater than 6%.

Each retiree who retired prior to 9/30/1999 will receive the full COLA in their January 31, 2022 pension check. 

The rest of us will receive 75% of that 6% number or 4.5%…assuming the final inflation COLA number is 6%.  If the final number is greater than 6% it will be 75% of the the greater number.

The Pension Law caps the COLA increase beginning at 8%, the full explanation of the capped COLA can be found in the Pension Law.

They chose San Antonio for our reunion this year not only because it is a beautiful destination, but specifically to honor Sammy P. Rodriguez, from San Antonio, who was KIA in Vietnam while serving in our unit.

They will present his daughter, who was born after his death, and the rest of his family an opportunity to talk with and visit the pilots and crew members that were with him at the time of his death.
The service will start at 9:00am should be as follows:
•    Presentation of the Colors by the Breckenridge High School JROTC
•    Singing of the National Anthem by a member of the Army North Band, Fort Sam Houston.
•    Opening prayer and remarks from our unit Chaplin
•    Reading of the names of our fallen followed by the playing of Taps.
•    Opportunity for family members or friends to share memories of our fallen brothers.
