That was just base pay.We also get okaish housing, a steady pay check, free healthcare (As shitty as it is), free dental, somewhat free food (They take it out of your pay until you move out of barracks). When out of the barracks you get pay for food and housing. Extra money for going to schools and training. Extra money for a lot of things.
Service members also have to put up with a lot more BS. They also can't say "I'm done with this", clock out, and walk out the door - never to be seen again - at any given moment the way a cashier can.
