Nixon to boost military pay by 1.2 billion in first step toward end of draft
The Nixon administration plans a 1.2 billion military pay hike as part of a broader move to reduce reliance on conscription. Combined with a 1.8 billion automatic rise, total military pay will climb by 3 billion in the year starting July 1, aligning service pay with civilian salaries but increasing tax burdens. The move targets low rank personnel and supports a shift toward an all volunteer force, with a lottery draft proposed to reduce inductions.
