O-2: $3,901.20/Month – $5,398.50/Month
In the Army, Marine Corps, Air Force, and Space Force, an O-2 is a first lieutenant, and in the Navy and Coast Guard, an O-2 is a lieutenant junior grade. The compensation of an O-2, like the pay of other military grades, is determined by the amount of experience the individual has. It is reasonable to expect to make $46,814.40 per year if you have less than two years of experience, and $64,782 per year if you have at least six years of experience
O-1E: $4,260.60/Month – $5,289.90/Month
An O-1E officer makes a little more than an O-1 officer, but not much more. This is where years of experience come into play again. When compared to O-1s, who are often fresh out of the academy or an ROTC school, O-1Es have a little more service under their belt. Their service must be completed for a minimum of four years before they can be awarded a commission and O-1E status. Service members with at least 14 years of experience can earn up to $51,127.20 each year, while those with less than 14 years of experience can earn up to $63,478.80.
