2013 Military Pay Charts – Officer & Enlisted Pay (1.7% Raise)

July 9, 2019 By Ryan

2013 Military Pay Chart updated: The US government has finalized the 2013 military budgets, which included a 1.7% cost of living pay raise across the board. This is a 0.1% larger raise than 1.6% raise military members received in 2012.

These increases took effect January 1, 2013, for each branch of service, including the Army, Navy, Marines, Coast Guard, Air Force, and National Guard / Reserves. Due to space constraints, we rounded each number to the nearest dollar. Please use the following military pay charts as a reference for your expected pay and benefits, or visit the official DFAS page for more information.

Officer Military Pay Charts

Most officers join the military in the ranks of O-1 through O-3, depending on their contract and experience. Some officers, particularly those with prior civilian experience in the medical or legal fields, may join at a higher rank, or may receive advanced promotions, depending on their skills, civilian experience, and the contract they signed.

There are caps to how much General Officers can earn. Basic pay for an O-7 to O-10 is limited by Level II of the Executive Schedule. Basic pay for O-6 and below is limited by Level V of the Executive Schedule. These caps are removed when the service member retires.

Prior Enlisted Officers: Prior enlisted officers may receive higher pay based on their time in service and other criteria. The pay is primarily based on their time in service, but they may also earn slightly higher BAH and other benefits. In general, this pay rate is available to officers in the ranks of O-1 through O-3 who served at least 4 years on active duty as an enlisted member or Warrant Officer (or who earned 1,460 points in the Guard or Reserves). The Department of Defense Financial Management Regulations (DoDFMR) provides more details regarding who is eligible the prior-enlisted officer basic pay rate. Prior enlisted officer pay is denoted in the following pay tables as O-1E, O-2E, and O-3E.

Warrant Officers: Most Warrant Officers are prior enlisted members and will have time in service when they become a Warrant Officer. Their pay will reflect the number of years served when they achieve the rank of Warrant Officer.
