Your Army Salary
On top of career training and an unmatched benefits package, you'll earn a salary known as Army Basic Pay. The longer you serve, the more you'll earn.
Earn More Than A Paycheck
As a Soldier, you'll get paid more than just a salary. Benefits like free healthcare, housing, subsidized food, and money for education all add up to cover a majority of your living expenses.
Educational Benefits For Your Future
Your future goals mean a lot to us. Whether you want to attend college, pay off existing student loans, or pursue certifications and trainings, there are countless benefits available to you. In fact, on your first day as an enlisted Soldier, you'll get $250 per credit hour each semester, additional tuition money after you serve five years with the GI Bill, and dozens of other financial aid programs to help you achieve success.
Healthcare and vacation
Your health and time off are just as important to us as it is to you. As a Soldier, you'll get 30 vacation days, life insurance, and the best healthcare benefits in the country.
