What is the Point of the Master Sergeant Rank?

WOW shouldnt you be in iraq or afghanistan?

i think EA should pay us for our rank... hmm as lance corporal i should make $30,750 a year... mmm money for video-games

Next to that we should also get compesation for the fact we had to betatest the game, and compesation for the traumas we vets got fighting the virtual war, just so that EA and dice could fill their pockets.

30K a year? Where'd you get those figures? I'm an E-5 and don't make that much by a long-shot...

I'm guessing that's a LCpl actively deployed in a combat zone receiving BAH/BAS and dependant pay and per diem... :)

Regular active duty LCpl's make $17474.40 - $18572.40 yearly... (Of course there are those career-lance corporals that make a bit more, but nothing close to 30k.)
