Military Pay Chart 2011 (Proposed 1.9%)

2011 US Military Basic Pay Charts

This chart is based on the Employment Cost Index (ECI) percentage increase of 1.4% that was released on 30 October 2009 plus the additional half percent proposed by Congressman Joe Wilson of South Carolina in H.R. 4427 on January 13, 2010. An additional .5% has been added to the president's proposals since 1999 in an effort to bring the military's pay more inline with that of the private sector. On February, 1 2010, President Obama proposed a 1.4% increase for 2011 - based on the ECI number. With the current state of the economy and with the upcoming election, this should prove to be a very interesting year to watch.

The United States military's pay and allowances are distributed on the 1st and 15th day of the month. If the 1st or 15th fall on a weekend or national holiday, payment will be made the working day prior. The pay scales below are proposals for active and reserve components of the Navy, Marines, Army, Air Force, Coast Guard and National Guard. The pay rates are monthly amounts rounded to the nearest U.S. dollar.
