Credit for Prior Federal Active Duty Military Service: COA ERS Members may establish up to 48 months of Creditable Service for prior military service. Military service eligible for purchase is full-time active duty in the armed forces of the United States of at least 90 consecutive days, before the beginning of a Member’s most recent period of COA ERS membership. To purchase prior military service, honorably discharged Members must present an original DD214.
