If the employee was never in the military service, go on to the next section.
If the employee ever served in active duty in the United States Armed Forces, the RRB may be able to use that military service to increase the amount of the lump-sum death payment or residual lump-sum payment. Proof of military service must be submitted if it has not already been submitted by the employee. Refer to the section, Proof Of Military Service, for information on acceptable proof of military service.
