Don't know about reg army, but the NDNG is good. In fact they are talking about cutting enlistment bonuses, and possibly reup bonuses. They have enough people (130% strength) and are facing budget cuts.

prob was an E1 that was getting paid as an E4 for some reason. When they tried to recoup the $$, everyone's pay got fucked.

still... I rely on that money... they'd owe me for the hardship and pay any late payments it caused... and correct any issues with my credit.

OH HELL NO!
I already don't get paid enough for how much time I put in, I don't need anyone else taking up another jet and breaking it every damn time they fly. 60 hour weeks/ 40 hours of pay is not worth it. You can get your back seat ride from Falcon 4.0. Hell I haven't gotten a ride yet and I work on the damn things.
