Default 15 Year Military Retirement??

What are the implications for the services if Department of Defense approves a Temporary Early Retimement Authority similar to the drawdaown after the Persian Gulf War in the early 1990's? Is there potential to lose "the best and brightest" and be stuck with a hollow force? After more than 10 years of war, is the force too worn out to keep going for a twenty year career?
