Military Pay Tables Past & Present

My retired Master Chief buddy sent me this. It's the military pay scale from 1949 to 2006. Interesting, even if you're not in the military.

For instance, here's a comparison of what I made when I joined vs. what a new enlistee would make when I retired:

E-1 Monthly Basic Pay, 1980 - 501.30
E-1 Monthly Basic Pay, 2001 - 1,042.80


Dang.
