The JBSA Retired Military Council hosts its annual T-65 Forum 2026, providing essential information to military retirees turning 65 on the transition to TRICARE For Life, Medicare eligibility, DEERS/ID card updates, and Social Security benefits at Joint Base San Antonio, Texas, June 6, 2026.
The in-person event at the Military & Family Readiness Center on JBSA-Fort Sam Houston supports San Antonio’s large military retiree community — known as Military City USA — by helping attendees stay informed on healthcare changes and benefits available at age 65. Attendees heard opening remarks from JBSA Retired Military Council co-chairman Mr. Felix Santiago, COL (Ret.), U.S. Army, “Soldier for Life” Officer, along with support from JBSA leadership and presentations by subject matter experts including TriWest Healthcare Alliance (TRICARE West Region), the Social Security Administration, and the 802d Military Personnel Flight (DEERS/ID Cards), followed by a question-and-answer session. This video was recorded during the JBSA Facebook livestream.
