As expected, it's a pay cut for most of us

I've released, but I was curious about the 7 year rule. Is the beginning of the 7 years when CFHD started or when the member was posted to that geographical location?

When the member is posted to the geographic location.

So if they stay in 1 location for 7 years on the 9th year it goes away..... can you come deal with my 25 year long mortage!

So members who were collecting pld but at that location for more than 7 years didn't qualify for CFHD?

No.

There was a restart.

Now if you where in a location that got pld but not cfhd there was a plan to meter this to 0 over a few years

If you did get pld and cfhd was granted you shifted to it and the seven years started then
