Military Pay? So I'm enlisted in the U.S. army, i leave for basic July 18th. I signed to be in for 8 years, 5 of which are active duty. I was just wondering if during the 3 years that i'm not active, will I still get paid for that? Just wondering. It doesn't matter to me, I just wanna know.

No as you have already signed up with another branch of the military

No it is not a factor.

military gets 30 days of leave a year. When you can go is determined by the operations of the unit you are in.

Yes, as long as you are practicing medicine in the service.

it depends on your re-enlistment code in your record. contact your nearest recruiter.

do not lie. It is a felony to lie on enlistment applications and paperwork. also you will want your wife to have medical coverage and the other benefits associated with being a military spouse.
DO NOT LIE.

Yes as it is from a superior rank

Do you like sleeping in the mud or in a hot tent - join the Army.
If you want an air conditioned bed on a clean ship with hot showers - Go Navy.

I recommend joining the Air Force if you want to become a pilot however, people don't just become pilots after having a Bachelors. You have to meet the requirements, pass the exams and be medically cleared and in shape, this applies to all branches. On the other hand its a challenge that only you can decide. I recommend talking to the nearest recruiter.

If the member is absence from their unit, organization, or other place of duty for not more than 3 days: Confinement for 1 month, reduction to the lowest enlisted grade, and forfeiture of two-thirds pay per month for 1 month.

If the member is absence from their unit, organization, or other place of duty for more than 3 days but not more than 30 days: Confinement for 6 months, reduction to the lowest enlisted grade, and forfeiture of two-thirds pay per month for 6 months.

If the member is absence from their unit, organization, or other place of duty for more than 30 days: Dishonorable discharge, forfeiture of all pay and allowances, reduction to the lowest enlisted grade, and confinement for 1 year.

I hope shes worth it.
