1. “Mr. Tarver is obligated to pay Mrs. Tarver ½ of all pay received by him from his military retirement commencing December 5, 1974, but we shall not attempt, on this record, to interpret whether ½ of Mr. Tarver's pay from military retirement should be construed to include the monthly amount Mr. Tarver was awarded by the Air Force for his disability. In the interest of justice, we shall remand to allow the trial court to receive evidence on what amounts were paid and accepted under the 1974 judgment between November 12, 1974, and March 1, 1976, and determine what the litigants intended by their 1974 agreement that was incorporated into the judgment of November 12, 1974. CCP Art. 2124. The trial court may receive such evidence as to the amounts paid Mr. Tarver by the Air Force since December 5, 1974, either or both for his longevity of military service and for his disability and determine what amount, if any, Mr. Tarver may owe Mrs. Tarver under the obligation recognized in the 1974 judgment, 508 So.2d 647 .”
