25. They dont.
I get $246 dollars a month Seperate Rations pay because I am married and live off post. That is supposed to by all of my food for a month. Not my wife and kids and Me, just me. My family housing allowance is $600 dollars a month. The thing is, in millitary towns, barely adequate housing starts at what ever the minimum BAH is. That doesn not include Utilities, phone, cable, internet, ect.

They dont even know what it costs for a soldier to have a home and enough money to take care of bills and their families. I couldnt live at all if I had to pay for medical. I do however have to pay for dental for my family...guess teeth are a luxury......

He didnt want to pay. He wanted a photo op.
