He gave up officer pay for enlisted pay? So, he's a trust fund kid, or what? Who does that, really?

Something just seems off about this. Since when does the military care how fulfilled you feel?
Not everyone has a pile of debt to pay off, or a wife that spends it faster than you can make.

My two sons found out the big difference in Marine and Army enlisted pay: The Army son got a uniform voucher every year, the Marine son paid for his uniforms from his slim pay!
