...... Were you expecting them to earn £21,000 like pilots?!
 Sure, being a marine is a challenging job (and no disrespect to ANY marines), but the job doesn't require the biggest brain in the world does it? |

Any military services usually give great benefits.

Grunts dont earn a good wage. Its a fact of life. I was offered a job by the RAF careers officer with a starting sallery of 31k a year and officer fast track. Turned it down becasue ive decided I really dont like the whole "at work 24/7 and tied in for 9 years" deal, plus my Dad warned me that Careers officers will tell you anything to get you in, just like they did with him. It all sounded a bit to sweet of a deal to be true.

 [RGG] - Pte.Phillips - www.rggsquad.co.uk - Arma ftw Really Gay Guy America was a tad late into the First World War. They redeemed themself's and came in slightly sooner in the Second. Now they seem determined to start the Third. |

There's a higher risk in being a Royal Marine than a Pilot though, I mean, you're less likely to get killed in combat as a pilot, but the pay doesn't reflect that.

 Thanks Nick. |
