What was the youngest age you could have retired and received a pension from your last employer if you hadn't become disabled?

I was an Air Traffic Controller and retired on disability this year at age 59.  The mandatory retirement age for air traffic controllers is normally 56, but I had an age waiver allowing me to work until I completed 20 years of DoD service.  With the age waiver, I would have retired in June 2023 at age 60 years and 11 months.  What should I enter for my 1099-R question?  56, 60 or 61?
