Since you have to a part of team TMS to watch the super bowl commecrial, I cant watch it. I would just watch the superbowl and wait for it, but since Im deployed overseas, the Armed Forces Network TV doesnt play commercials.

So I wont be able to see it

Pay for things? On the internet! Surely everything is free in this magical land.

We just got a base pay raise and a housing pay raise if you live out in town. It stinked being E-3 though because they never pay enough for that. I'm an E-5 currently and I know how oyu feel! Better times ahead!

I just signed up for the $15 thing so I could download the video. That and I love this site. There is nothing better on the net.

Ahem....

You're in the company of a lot of vets and current military here.

That I'm only an E-3 junk doesn't wash...Your forgetting the fact that a good chunk of your pay (your allowances) are not taxed, your room and board is taken care of...You probably have more spendable cash than any civilian in your age group, especially in ND!

Heck, I make 2 1/2 times what I did when I took an early retirement, and guess what? My take home pay just now got over the hump to what I used to take home when I left 8 years ago!

Points to ponder there Airman

I'm really not raggin on ya! Just putting things in perspective....

Keep up the good work! Really I do mean that

I think the problem is I see too many airman driving around in BMW's, and other really nice cars that they are spending their pay on. It is rather surprising when their only bills are a car pymt, car insurance, gas, and maybe a cell phone bill and that takes up all of their pay.

Been that way forever, in every service. Young guys love hot cars and they will find a way to drive one. Unless they were married, the young enlisted guys always had a nicer car then I did. No one gets rich as an E3. For what they are doing today, they don't get paid enough. When their peers have the same level of commitment and responsibility, they will make as much. Just the opinion of this old Army officer! I love em all!

Cool, not a bad place to get stationed, lot of people like Kadena and Misawa. Yakota is only good if you like the big city, and Tokyo is about as big as you get.

Kadena is cool, I spent 2 weeks there back in 96. Hope you like watersports.
Oh, and watch out for habu snakes.
On a side note, I just came off active duty(Navy) and am now in the reserves(also Navy), just found out that I'll be doing my annual drills at NAF Atsugi where I was stationed from 94 to 97. Ahhh, good times...getting all nostalgiac.

It stinks you get paid so little but don't ever start a sentence with "i'm only" when your talking about the military. If your there, your bad-hiney in my book. I,m not even a tms member but i'd be happy to sign you up. have brad send me a pm and i"ll shoot him a paypal payment. :usa:
