Military Compensation Issues

Abstract

In this and the next several years, the Subcommittee faces difficult decisions about a wide variety of compensation issues that will affect defense spending. My testimony today will focus on three key issues: military pay raises, educational benefits, and military retirement. I will assess the effects of alternative decisions on costs and on the ability to recruit and retain needed military personnel. Your decisions will also have important effects on morale and equity, which I realize you must weigh along with the cost and manning implications.
