Other pay: Hazardous Duty/Parachute

People in especially dangerous jobs, such as those who handle toxic chemicals, are entitled to hazardous duty incentive pay. Officers and enlisted personnel in such positions collect an extra $150 per month. An especially dangerous kind of parachuting — high-altitude, low-opening (HALO) jumping — qualifies service members for $225 a month.

Hazardous duty pay is taxable unless received in a combat zone.
