Pay Charts

The Office of the Secretary of Defense has a good website that explains the basics of military compensation. Go to: http://www.dfas.mil/money/milpay/index.htm and click on “Current Rates” to see pay charts for all ranks. There is also other pay information at this website.

Another good place to look at the current pay charts is in the January issue of Airman Magazine, which is published every month. Each unit on base gets a few copies, but they're available on-line, also. The January issue every year has the new pay charts (and more terrific information). You can find Airman Magazine at: http://www.af.mil/news/airman/indxflas.html Enter the site, and click on “Back Issues”. Click on the January issue for the current year, then go to the “Database”. You will find pay charts under the “Military Pay” section.
