Military people would get a 3.5 percent pay raise January 2008, under a compensation package voted recently by the House armed services' subcommittee on military personnel. In shaping the personnel section of the fiscal 2008 defense authorization bill, the subcommittee approved other initiatives too to please health care beneficiaries, surviving spouses and some disabled retirees forced from service short of 20 years by combat-related injuries. For more information, read the article on the Military.com website. All military pay information can be found in Military.com's Pay Section.
