Those charts are base pay only. There is also a clothing allowance and in some instances sea pay, flight pay, overseas pay, hazardous duty pay, combat pay, isolated duty pay. For military with dependents or where govt. lodging not available, there is housing allowance and coast of living allowance. In addition, there is no co-pay for medical, dental or vision care. There is also the GI bill. There are the retirement benefits for life which many of us enjoy.
