If what we read about the military lately, is true, I would imagine the big signing bonuses will mainly go to those MOS's concerning gender re assignment counseling.


Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.

I was commissioned. Naval Aviation, but we had several enlisted rates that were getting $60k-$75k bonuses. matter of fact they would wait to take their re-enlistment bonuses until we were deployed to a tax free zone so they wouldn't pay tax on that $75K. then we would have a mass re-enlistment ceremony where they all got their checks. This was a 99-03 squadron tour.

Ask a WW I vet about "bonuses"! George Patton and Dwight Eisenhower were among the people who gave them their "bonus"!
