20 year retirement with a military career?

Remember how guys stayed in the US military moving all over the place and enduring the family separations and other hardships, like the occasional war, just to get that entire 20 years in? Looks like there is a new plan, now that we are in the perpetual conflict era, and the government wants to do it on the cheap. No more retirement after 2o years with a guaranteed pension for our present day military.
