there is no such thing as BATH..

there is BAH= basic allowance housing...and that is determined by the cost of living in the area..I get 900 a month from the army for rent. You don't get anything extra for # of dependents. having 1 child is the same as having 12 as far as they are concerned..so you get either BAH w/dep. or BAH w/o dep.

BAS= basic allowance for substanance
Seperate rats= pay for food if you don't live in the barracks, so BAS and sep rats are the same thing

seperation pay= 100 dollars for every month you are seperated from your spouse

Hazard duty pay and imminent danger pay...

HDP depends on where you are located...Jordan is 150, Kuwait city is 50 bucks.

Imminent danger pay is 150 a month

combat tax exclusion is only exempt up to 5,000
If your spouse dies in combat, you get 6,000 dollars within 72 hours, plus spouses life insurance
If you do not remamrry, you get 927 dollars a month for life, plus 278 dollars a month for each child under the age of 18.
