Variables
The salary of a U.S. Marine varies greatly depending on his pay grade. Enlisted Marines, warrant officers and officers all have nine different pay grades that affect pay and benefits accordingly. Years of service also have a great effect on salary. For instance, a warrant officer with four years of service under his belt might earn an annual 2011 basic pay salary of about $39,000 while a 20-year officer makes between $50,000 or more. These figures account for 12 months of service per year with basic pay.
