there is more than just BHA and FSA. I just cant think of the terminology right now. Its been awhile since I been out. Hazardous pay is also on the list.
Yeah, Hazardous Duty Pay (basically "Combat pay") wasn't all that much, as I remember it (but this was back in the early 90's). Like $150 bucks a month.

I seem to remember some kind of tax-free status as well (Federal), but I can't remember if it was on ALL your pay or just the hazardous duty portion.

I *should* remember, since I was basically an accountant when I was in.
