I guess $28,000 for four years experience is "well". I dunno, they do a service and don't suck up resources they have done nothing to deserve. I'll give a few more dollars to their cause.

Or, I'll give it to a battered women's shelter. [braces for jokes]

actually, i kinda agree with you on this. those places need it. at the same time, i can't but help to think about how often i have told a dumb shit female friend to leaver her abusive loser boyfriend and they never would.


dumb enough to put up with it, dumb enough to deserve it.

the ones that need the help that i approve of are the ones who can't leave because the guy has tricked them and said "baby, i'll take care of you" so they don't have a job, or any skills, or anywhere to go, so they have to stick with the bastard

The mentality of a person who is suffering from Battered Wife Syndrome (BWS) is much different than those of a typical, sane man.

28k a year is for an E6 (Staff Sergeant), taken straight off the Army website. Four years experience is usually what it takes (minimum) to reach that rank.

02's (First Lieutenants) in the Army make around $33k/year if they've been in for less than 2 years.

Granted, there are bonuses in there.

Feel free to donate it to teachers; we make less soldiers with comparable experience.

That is also standard salary in the states. When they're out on a tour they get quite a bit more, especially if they're in a warzone.

At the time of deployment an Army soldier receives $250 (begins 30 days after separation) in family separation pay a month as well as Hazardous Duty pay of $225 per month while in a war zone. There is also a Hardship Duty Pay for $100 a month.

All of this is tax free.

That is still good, but I wonder if that changes by rank. I don't know the exact details but I do know my bro-in-law who is a captain makes about 40% more while he's in Iraq.
