You mention you just got out, do you know what an E4 or E5 averages on, say, his second enlistment?

Years <2 2 3 4 6 8 (sorry for the formatting..or lack of)
E-4 1502.70 1579.80 1665.30 $1749.30 1824.00 1824.00

Housing in JACKSON, MS (with dependants) $542.00

$542.00+$1749.00 = $2291.00 Per Month

$2291 x 12= $27,492 per year
(Add family separation if deployed of $3,000 per year (non taxable) and Imminent danger pay (if in a danger/combat zone)of about the same I think (non taxable)) and you have a Married 23 year(about) old making about:
$33,000 (gross)per year. (+I didn't put in the extra this person would recieve because of no federal taxes becasue I don't know what they would have paid)

I did this really quickly... I think it is right...
