The British Army Pay and Purchase of Commissions

A detailed critique of army officer pay and the system of purchasing commissions up to lieutenant colonel. It analyzes how purchase reduces pay, the impact on general officers, and compares to foreign armies and the navy, with calculations of annual net rewards and long term losses. It argues the need to assess true costs of service and acknowledges the duty and varied roles off duty.
