Do you consider yourself a DZ? If you were out for 5 years you couldn’t have had much of a DB earned when the pension was ****canned. More bad luck with career timing than a DZ issue, I should know as I am also a member of the Furlough with a 17 year upgrade club. I don’t consider myself a DZ or really anybody else still on property.
The true DZs are long gone and they were really screwed.
