In Texas, all assets start with the presumption they are community property and subject to fair division during a divorce. However, it is fairly straightforward to prove, if it was the case, that the majority of a retirement account was accrued as separate property prior to marriage.

Rolling the asset into an IRA would not offer any special protection, and doing so with the intent to hide an asset would be bad.

I think you should discuss the matter with your local representative of JAG. I cannot tell whether German law applies, or some federal or military-law rule governs. Good Luck.
