Air Force members who reenlisted after Jan. 1 but did not receive either the selective reenlistment bonus (SRB) or critical skills retention bonus (CSRB) to which they were entitled because of the delay in approval of the 2008 defense bill will soon get the money they are due. The Air Force announced immediate authorization of the retroactive payments on Feb. 18. To view the list of those eligible, and for more information, visit the Air Force Personnel Center’s Web site at http://ask.afpc.randolph.af.mil and search for "SRB" or "CSRB," or call the 24-hour Air Force Contact Center at (800) 616-3775.
