Answer 1

You'll come in as an E-1 and will receive $1,245.90 per month.  But no worries. You'll get free rent and free medical insurance.  

E-1* 1245.90



*For E-1 with less than 4 months of service

Answer 2

Contrary to popular American belief the British army is paid in Pounds Stirling` and the new entrant pay rate is £964 (approx $1928 ) Level 1 pay rate is as follows £1202.60 per month which would work out  around $2400 per month.
