Pay
Grade
The distribution
of deployed enlisted personnel by pay grade, shown in Table 8.6, indicates
that deployed enlisted personnel tended to have less experience (i.e.,
a lower pay grade) than the enlisted force as a whole. A total of 62 percent
of deployed enlisted personnel were in the pay grades between and including
E1 and E4, while 54 percent of all enlisted personnel were in these pay
grades. At the upper-end of the pay grade distribution (E7 through E9)
were nearly 12 percent of the total enlisted force. In comparison, only
7 percent of the enlisted Servicemembers deployed in FY 2000 held the
highest ranks. Among deployed personnel, males tended to be in higher
pay grades than females. Seventy-one percent of females were in pay grades
E1 through E4, while 61 percent of males were in these pay grades. Similarly,
deployed Hispanics tended to have a lower pay grade (74 percent in E1
to E4) than other racial/ethnic groups (61 percent Whites, 59 percent
Blacks, and 63 percent "Other" race).

The distribution
of officer pay grades, shown in Table 8.7 suggests a similar pattern to
that of enlisted personnel, with less experienced officers more highly
represented in the deployed officer corps than in the total force. Company
grade officers (with a pay grade of O3 or below) made up 75 percent of
deployed officers, while they constituted only 59 percent of all Active
Component officers. Also paralleling the pattern in the enlisted force,
as well as that of the total officer corps, deployed female officers were
more likely to be company grade (83 percent) than their male counterparts
(74 percent). In addition, deployed minorities tended to have a lower
pay grade than White officers. While 74 percent of White officers were
at company grades, the comparable percentage was higher for Blacks, Hispanics
and "Other" minority officers (79 percent, 86 percent, and 80
percent, respectively). These differences in pay grade by gender and race/ethnicity
for deployed officers mimicked those for the total officer corps, with
a smaller percentage of male than female company grade officers (58 percent
versus 67 percent), and a smaller percentage of White than minority officers
of pay grade O3 or below (57 percent versus 64 percent for Blacks and
71 percent for Hispanics and "Other" officers).
