How many W-5's are there in the armed services? And what is their breakdown as per service?
410630
As of 2005, there were 12,276 Warrant Officers in the active duty Army which is 15.1% of the officers total.  I don't know how many of those are 5's, but I hope that helps to narrow the field for you a little bit.

Funny I was just reading a report yesterday that said that there were like 268 bad conduct discharges that were appealed last year.  Only one was "upgraded".  If you still have your DD-214 see what the R number is down in the bottom corner, that is what really counts.  I am told that senators are the point of contact to try to improve this, however being senators I am sure you will not get far with them.  Good luck, I would start by writting or emailing your local house rep. and Senator.  If you do not hear anything after a few weeks, then start calling and being a pest.  I do not know how much effort I would waste on this though.  I have seen people with horrible discharges get some really great jobs, as long as they were not gov. contracts or needed security clearences.

No, all military services use the military pay scale, determined by the gov't. You can find it by typing military pay scale 2006 in a search engine. However some services and or specific jobs promote faster. \n  I spent some time in the military and just from my observations....the people in the army and air force were promoted the slowest. The Navy would be next and the Marines were the fastest to be promoted. But the Marines are also the toughest. \n    Some critical jobs might offer better re enlistment bonuses. But there is not a branch or force that pays better than the other.

Remember that members of the military get paid not only by rank/pay grade but also by number of years in.  This is as of Jan 1 2006\n\nPay is as follows (without benefits)\nO-10 13365-14196 (20years-26 years)\nO-9   11689-12525 "                            "\nO-8   8271-11348 (<2-26)   11075 (at 20 years)\nO-7   6872-10066 (<2-26)   10015 "                  "\n\nI've never met an O-7 or above with less than 20years but the site had the numbers, so they're shown.\n\nWhen you get up there you start raking in the money, especially as a nuke...benefits add a few thousand dollars on all of these figures.

I read an article last week that made me mad. They currently have a paid voluntary army. It's reported that at any given time like even now during this war time that 25% are ALWAYS on vacation! They usually show up on pay day and during important excerizes only 2/3 of them show up.

The Army & Air Force & Reg. Navy have 12 months deployments - the Navy aircraft personnel has 18 months.      The Marines do 6-7 month deployments.\nWhy? Orders from way up top.

No, I don't need to check the internet. The highest rank any member of the armed forces can achieve is a five-star general, and there have only been eight of those in the entire history of the US military.

Have a look at the websites below!   Too much to put in this as the stuff is in a table and is also broken down into countries.\n\nI cannot find a breakdown of WWI military breakdown, however.   Part of the reason for this is because the RAF was set up in1918.\nAlso try the http://www.navynews.co.uk - you may be able to contact them to find out how many naval personnel were killed, especially from the last website I missed, which  says:\n\nNaval deaths recorded for national monument   16.02.04 10:25 \n A database containing details of all Naval deaths in service since the middle of the 20th century has been handed over to the Navy – and will be used to create a new national memorial.\n\nand as this was written in 2004, they may now have a list for you to refer to.\n\nGood luck in your research!\n\nHope these websites are useful.

The same as any other E-7 makes.  Go to military.com and go to paychart to find how much a E-7 makes.

I think the German army, if they stationed in the US they even get a paid vacation home. Never heard that in the US army.

Of course not!  So many military families have to be on WIC that they have offices on base housing.  Most of us, live paycheck to paycheck.  My husband and I can't even afford to buy me glasses!  The jobs we do in the military, we can get paid about 5 times as much in the civilian world.  We don't do it for money though.  We do it because we love this country and we want our children to know freedom.

CHAPTER 14-12a:  MINOR DISCIPLINARY INFRACTIONS\n\nSoldiers are subject to separation for a pattern of misconduct consisting solely of minor military disciplinary infractions.\nNot that bad, but fight it, fight it hard. Go to JAG today. I thought getting a discharge was great when it happened, but I've been fighting to get back in ever since. Do not let it happen to you. Good luck soldier.
