The training and salary you get as a Soldier are only some of the ways the Army strengthens you for tomorrow. The Army also offers money for education, comprehensive health care, generous vacation time, family services and support groups, special pay for special duties and cash allowances to cover the cost of living.
The best compensation package there is. Easily the best advantage of joining the military.

The medical care wasn't as good as what is given in the Civilian sector, but I was glad to have health insurance than to not have any.

Few organizations can compete with the outstanding benefits available for members of the US Military: competitive salary, housing allowance, health insurance, 30 days of paid leave per year, full educational scholarships, 20-year pension, and worldwide travel opportunities.

PRO: 30 days of leave, can take passes when you don't want too use your leave; get to see different parts of the world.
CONS: 24 hour duty; deployments (being away from family for long periods of time); toxic leadership.

It is a great package, the challenge is often being able to use them because of deployments. But receiving a pension for life is a great benefit.
