Enlisted Pay "A Joke?"

Abstract

Today's enlisted Soldier enters the military with a higher education and receives up-to date technological training prior to reporting to their first duty station. The pay a Soldier receives for their dedication to duty as well as their expertise is somewhat below that of their civilian counterparts. Whether the enlisted member is a private or the Sergeant Major of the Army (SMA), the responsibilities and requirements of today's soldiers is far greater than ever before. But more importantly the difference between them and their counterparts, the officers, plays much more than one would tend to think.
