In 1952, the U.S. military pay scale varied based on rank and years of service. For example, an enlisted soldier at the pay grade of E-1 earned around $78 per month, while a four-star general (O-10) could earn approximately $1,000 per month. Pay rates were significantly lower compared to today's standards, reflecting the economic conditions of the time and the military's budget constraints during the Korean War. Additionally, various allowances and benefits were provided to service members, which could supplement their base pay.
