Just and FYI.
The Army just published their updated financial incentive changes on JAGCNet.

Here is a summary:
1. Student Loan Repayment Program. For the first time, the JAG Corps is offering a loan repayment program which offers up to $65K in loan repayment, over three years.
2. Judge Advocate Continuation Pay. This is a $60K bonus (in two installments), offered after the initial term of service in exchange for another 4 year commitment.
3. Critical Skills Retention Bonus. This is another new bonus for $60K (in 3 installments) to Majors who have completed the Graduate Course. Again, this will require an additional four year service commitment.
These programs are designed to work in concert to help keep good officers in the Army by removing the law school debt from the equation.
