do people in the military really get paid??

Not feasible breh. He would be part of an expeditionary bn or bde and they just arent in use that much. And the only ones to include individual augmentees who can be deployed for that long would be guard/reservists. An active dude cant stay gone that long...I believe that this is what he told you and it may look like that but you also may be confusing overseas short tours and long tours with deployments.


Also the military does have checks and have sent them out. I have received 3. One was my last AF check the other 2 were some pay issues.

Same as any other check. Usually when you get out the last payment they send you afyer you receive your dd form 214 is a check....I never understood that either.

Keep in mind. All 3 were due to cross branch transfers when the army was doing blue to green program.

i just left afghanistan 2 weeks ago


and the point of 9month deployments was so the govt didnt have to pay for R&R flights and save money


so they are not sending a dam 88m to afghanistan for 3 months then fly him back for a few weeks and send him back again


gtfoh

 

[OH SOHH TRILL]

nikka aint no 88m gone get deployed for 3 months and get to come back


do u know how much that would cost the govt

i didn't say afganistan. i'm talking about iraq from 2002-2009. he has been deployed to afganistan as well, but that wasn't a short deployment. like i said, you're confusing now with right after 9/11 which is what i'm talking about.

son received a check from one branch of service that he ets'd from as he was entering a new one

it had nothing to do with regular pay or bonuses


normally there are no checks issued

and no

your truck driving brother was not important enough to be sent to Afghanistan for 3 dam months only to be sent back and forth at the cost it takes to do so


either ya brother is lying to impress u

or u just lying on here for no reason

everything i said is all fact. the specifics mights be off. 4 months instead of 3. 16 months instead of 19. but the general gist is all facts. especially the dollar amount. i did his taxes, so I saw his LES and I saw the interest statements from his savings account and thus knew how much he had saved. but you keep making definitive statements and then having to retract them.

 

[OH SOHH TRILL]

i don't know what is was called. the nikka would be here, then he would be over there a few months. pop back up a few weeks. be gone 6 months. it was like that for damn near 6-7 years. and the money amounts, I know to be fact.

I was with 172nd stryker bde and we had a 16 month deployment but the only ones there in the 16th month was the senior leadership and the damn shipping crew. My unit was back at month 13. Sustaimment stayed longer.

is the shipping crew the unit that takes inventory of the equipment and unloads and loads onto the cargo planes? if so, that's my brother. he was an intrabase truck driver. he would set up the base camps or whatever they're called. he called it the easiest job in the army because he was always deployed but rarely left base so he never got shot at.

he was an e7 when most of this was happening. is that considered leadership? i'm not in the army so I don't even really know what an e7 is except that its a sergeant.

aight

as i stated the 200k for 7 deployments def is accurate(actually it was probably more) because Army was doing extra long as deployments in Iraq

-my shortest was 14months

so 7deployments is basically 7 years so he probably made about 300k

and u said 30k plus bonus

but meant 30k in bonus

so yeah you werent lying
