How much do you get when you come out of boot camp?

 

[sorkoram]

You get E1 pay which is under 2 years for around $1250 per month before state/federal deductions.
But you will not get any pay until after you have finished. It will be backdated though to the date you started I'm pretty sure.

 

[lurkin2long]

LOL, you wanna be a marine/military for the paycheck?

 

[jordanhead2]

The recruiters at my school tried to get me with all that money talk. I said heeelll noo. I want nothing to do with the marines or war in general. However I dosupport the men/women fighting to keep us safe.

And that is monthly. If you are looking to making some money you wont do it initially in the Marines. Benefits are straight but that private pay is not whatsup. But you do get promoted pretty quickly in the Marine Corp.

[lilpro4u]

[properlive]

I leave June 29th, im doing MP

 

[yungchris504]

I did the PLC program I commission next year and yea you right its boot again but hey 2nd Luey pay is definitly better than Corporal pay much appreciated

 

[the takeover]

Is being an enlistee that much worse than being an officer?
I might mess with going to officer training if so.

 

[lu cash]

Like selling your soul...
