Sign ups are also high because all the old warhorses are getting out and realizing their new civilian friends don’t have knees that click. (Or one of any other hundred things)
You can probably find the numbers somewhere. But everyone I know thats been out in the last decade already have theirs. Hell, when I got out they had a class and we filled out paperwork while still active duty
What I have seen is a lot of elderly co-workers who have been out 30+ years realizing they’re close to retirement age with no way to pay for insurance.
With recent changes (I believe) 10% tinnitus gets them full healthcare now. So everyone that’s ever been in is signing up so they can stop working
