Deciphering Pay Charts
If you’re new to the military and unfamiliar with reading pay charts, the various rows and columns may seem confusing. However, interpreting your pay is quite easy. Simply locate your pay grade (rank) and number of years in the service. The coinciding figure represents your weekend drill salary.
Please keep in mind that you do not receive Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH), other allowances or special pay for regular weekend drills.
