The pay for being in the miliary is knowing that 313 million Americans can go to bed at night without worry.
I have literally never thought of that once the entire time I've been in the military, some people would be amazed by how little patriotic feelings, especially openly patriotic, motivate people to join or stay in the military. For me personally I never thought of doing something for my country as a reason to join, I figured the country could get along just fine without me serving.
