From my rant:

Color me cynical, but I think an E-3 who is ducking bullets and having his or her tour dates extended, and whose base pay is at most $1692 per month is more deserving of a hefty COLA raise than an O-9 who makes at least $11,698.50 per month. In six weeks, a Lt. General already makes all the money a ground-pounder will see in a year.
