I was a scholarship cadet. My father was a coal miner - I was so poor that my PMS bought me 2 sweatshirts and two pair of jeans to wear to class. When I was a senior my PMS actually bought my senior ring out of his own pocket.

LTC Jason Mackay Thank you sir! I think you just found the sources I was looking for on this. That makes sense. Thank you again!

LTC Jason Mackay looking at it, I'm able to track changes to the lower levels of pay, but when it expands back to a range of pay values from a fixed amount for everyone, I can't find the updates for the upper value. Do you think I'm missing it, or am I perhaps being referenced to a different title and section, but can't follow it? It's almost like I need to talk to someone specializing in US federal law to decode what I'm reading.

2d Lt (Join to see) - there was the wording on the DFAS site that said the SECDEF is authorized to set the rate and gave a range.
Id honestly stop digging and request the info from DFAS, they're paying it.
