All branches of military service are paid according to a pay scale, approved each year for any changes and commonly available online. Paygrade and years of service are the two deciding factors in the base pay of a service member. The tricky part comes when adding in allowances, such as housing allowances, special duty pay, and incentives such as Sea Pay (an allowance added monthly while in a Sea-going duty status based on how many years of accumulated "Sea-Duty" the service member has). This is mostly specific to the Navy, but other branches most certainly have their own "special pay".
