This is great! I went to Afghanistan from 03-04 for OEF as a specialist and made a grand total of around $20,000 in a year.

If it was a 12 month tour you got fricked.

Or he's lying.

E4 pay in 2003 was $1575 a month if I remember right...add on hostile fire / imminent danger pay and BAH / FSA if you're dumb enough to be married as a specialist and only way it's $20k is if you got busted down.

However 20k or 30k it was all getting blown within three months of redeploying so didn't matter.
