Yes, Dwight D. Eisenhower received both Army retired pay and his presidential salary concurrently. Upon his retirement from the Army in 1948, he began receiving retirement benefits. When he became president in 1953, he continued to receive his military retirement pay in addition to his presidential salary, as federal law allowed for this dual compensation.
