the sign on bonus goes by rate (or job) you choose in the military.\nthe national guard is a reserve branch and you will get paid reservist pay.\nyou get paid by rank in the military.  you get more money for housing (which goes by where you are stationed), food, bonuses, time-in-rate (the longer you are in the more money you make), being married, have kids, etc.\nas an e-3 active duty with one kid not married max taxes i bring home about 2500 dollars a month after taxes.  i got a 8000 bonus and when you get a sign on bnus you have to agree to staying in an extra year.\ngo to navy.mil and search for basic pay to get pay rates for all ranks.

It depends on his duty station and his rank. I have attached two links - one is for cost of living - the other is pay scale. He will get three pays - standard - housing (if off post) - and BAS (food).\nEmail me if you have any questions.\n\nhttp://www.dod.mil/dfas/militarypay/newinformation/WebPayTableVersion2006updated.pdf\n\nhttps://secureapp2.hqda.pentagon.mil/perdiem/bah.html

The army will send him home on R&R.Trust me on this I worked the R&R program at Rhein Main for 2 years Just because you are NG soldier sont mean they wont pay for it. Oh this is only if he is like in afghanistan or iraq or other zone like that..if he is deployed to germany, he might be out  there then. Dont get the R&R program mixed up with somebody say in Belgium who wants to go on leave!!!!!

I would highly recommend joining the U.S. Navy as an Information Systems Technician (IT) as you will get awesome training and the potential to earn:\n\nBasic Pay $1,748.10 a month (over 2 yrs service)\n\nSubsistence Pay $272.26 a month\n\nArea Incentive Pay (AIP) of up to $3,000 a month (depends on area)\nRe-Enlistment Bonus (SRB) of up to $40,000\nCost Of Living Adjustment (COLA) of aprox. $1,100.00\n\nEtc... Etc...\n\nIt is highly likely that you could be earning over $48,000 a year in just a little over 2 years of service with the prospects of high paying civilian jobs as soon as your enlistment is up. I truly think this opportunity is hard to find in the civilian sector right now with only a High School Diploma!\n\nAlso, potential for $52,000 of money for college as follows:\n\n"The Montgomery G.I. Bill (MGIB): Take a small $100 reduction in your Navy pay for just 12 months and you will get back an education benefit of over $37,000. You may use this money toward college once you’ve completed active duty or even use part of it while you're still serving. Combine it with a Navy College Fund "Kicker" and get over $70,000 toward your education! You will be entitled to receive up to 36 months of educational benefits as a full-time student under this program. See your Navy Recruiter for details.\n\nThe Navy College Fund: Available to those who sign up for the MGIB. If you’re a high school graduate, score a 50 or better on the ASVAB, and qualify for certain Navy jobs or apprenticeships, you can get more than $15,000 in addition to the MGIB money for your education."\n\n"Among the most important benefits are those for your health. As a Sailor, you receive: \nFull medical coverage and care in Navy or civilian facilities \nFull dental coverage and care from Navy professionals \nYour other benefits upon joining the Navy include: \nDiscounted travel \n30 days paid vacation each year \nGenerous educational benefits \n$250,000 life insurance policy for $16 a month or a $400,000 life insurance policy for $26 a month"\n\nIf the above interest you go here: http://www.navy.com/findarecruiter/

The army. Deployment are usually only 1 year in 3 years. So you do get time to be normal, have kids, and travel. You get paid and after 25 years you would have a nice pension too.

It's pretty much up to the individual.  Back in the day (decades ago) every thing was paid for so when you got paid you had nothing to spend it on.  If you were wise you saved it, otherwise they would go on spending sprees which usually involved booze and other unmentionables.  If the individual is married it's no different than being married to someone in the military as far as the time apart is concerned.

If you enlist, you will get basic private pay and then promotions with more pay follow as you pursue your career. You get an increase after 4 months, and most people get at least one promotion on finishing their first specialty school. the web address for the 2006 pay charts is below.\n\nWomen are supposedly ineligible for combat positions. Mostly that is just not so.\n\nYour chances of going to Iraq are high - we are at war. By the time you are ready, though, and hopefully with a change of administration, your chances may very well be considerably less.\n\nUnder 18, you will need your parent's written permission.\n\nYes, it is definitely worth your time. Also consider the other services - USAF and USN [not the USMC - I did that - not a good idea at all]\n\nGo get 'em, Tiger !!

If you serve 20 years on active duty then you typically are qualified to retire and start getting your pension immediately.\n\nIf you spend 20 years in the reserves and you retire you will get a % of your pay at the time of retirement when you reach age 60.  If you retire and remain in the inactive reserves your retirement pay is based on the grade and TIS with every military pay raise that occurred after you retired.

Check out Blackwater.  My husband is Army and one of his buddies is over there now with Blackwater.  They have already been deployed to Iraq before and he's making more money now than he did when he was fighting there.  It's dangerous.  If you're military, you'll understand the situation more thorough.

They all pay the same basic pay.  I'm sure the special pay is different for each service.  You can check out the DFAS website, http://www.dod.mil/dfas/.  If you're concerned about your mortgage, you also get a little thing called BAH, Basic Allowance for Housing.  How much you receive is based on rank and duty location.  It's not based on where you live.  For instance, if you are stationed in a high cost area like Washington DC, you will receive more than someone stationed in Indianapolis.  You can check that out yourself, by choosing a service under military pay information.  Then select "basic pay" and then click "current pay rates".  You should then see a chart for current pay rates and also information about BAH.  Use the calculator to see how much you would get based on the zipcode.

My husband is also in the military, and he gets paid on the Friday before the 15th and 30th.  He is in the USMC so I don't know about army or navy or guard.  Hope this helps.

I believe 66 2/3% of your weekly pay up to around $400 bucks. Not sure of the exact amount.

you will receive an article 15 and be subjected to reduction in rank and pay and have to perform extra duty either in iraq or upon return from your deployment. my husband said you can do extra duty over there as well and they also have a prison in kuwait, so you can do jail time.

Yes they're underpaid.  I'm the spouse of a military man who's deployed right now.  WOW, really?  A free apartment, which you can hear everything your neighbor is doing, trash pick up, dental?  That's the critera for being paid well?  Let's take your spouse away for a year, and see if you feel the same.  We have to use WIC for God's sake to be able to get our infant formula.  Whoever thinks the military are paid well, has never done this.

There is no more money being a Ranger been there done that, we washed out three out of every four then the Army can place them where ever they want.  That is not good for you!  One gets Jump pay which used to be $155.00 a month then there is hazard pay when they are in harms way that was 150.00.  No way to get rich but I get a hundred and ten a month for no knees and half a hand, was it worth it?  HELL NO!\n\nGod Bless You and the Southern People.
