                    1 Throughout this opinion and unless otherwise                    
                    indicated, all section references are to the                      
                    Internal Revenue Code in effect for the taxable                   
                    year in issue.                                                    

               After concessions by the parties,1 the issues are as                   
          follows:                                                                    
               (1) Whether petitioner’s military retirement pay is                    
          includable in gross income.  We hold that it is.                            
               (2) Whether petitioner’s Social Security benefits are                  
          includable in gross income pursuant to section 86.  We hold that            
          they are.                                                                   
               (3) Whether petitioner is liable for an addition to tax                
          under section 6651(a)(1) for failure to file.  We hold that he              
          is.                                                                         
               (4) Whether petitioner is liable for an addition to tax                
          under section 6654(a) for failure to pay estimated tax.  We hold            
          that he is.                                                                 

               1 Petitioner concedes that he received interest income in              
          the amount of $10 from Capital One Federal Savings Bank (Capital            
          One).                                                                       
               Respondent concedes that the notice of deficiency                      
          erroneously treated a deduction for a personal exemption as a               
          positive (i.e., upward) adjustment to petitioner’s income.  After           
          recomputation to correct this error, the amounts of the                     
          deficiency and the additions to tax are as follows:                         
                 Additions to tax

               1996    $2,561          $576            $79
