Pay Variances for Senior Leadership in the Military

Abstract

Senior Enlisted Soldiers are more educated and normally an important figure within a unit. They advise their officer counterparts daily in war and peace. Lawmakers are the elected officials who have the ability to equal the playing field of this "World Series." A unit is a nine-man baseball team! The Battalion Commander pitches, the Company, Commanders play infield, and the Lieutenants are the outfielders. The remaining position is the catcher, and this position is held by the Command Sergeant Major. They control the outfielders and makes sure they are in position. They make sure the infielders are prepared for the bunt. Lastly, the Command Sergeant Major makes sure the pitcher throws a curve when he recognizes a weak hitter. The players are happy when they win, but when its time for pay, the Command Sergeant Major is paid as the team's ball boy.
