Supreme Court of California

In a marriage dissolution action, the trial properly ordered the husband to pay the wife one-half of the amount of the community property expended to obtain husband's additional retirement credit for his premarital military service, plus interest, where, except for the community's contribution to the cost of obtaining the credit, the four years of additional credit are husband's separate property because the husband rendered the military service before the marriage.
