Putting in 15 hours at the motor pool is not something that happens every day. I was a Black Hawk crew chief for 3 years and put in my share of 18+ hour days and 12+ hour days on the weekend that I thought I would be off for, but I never pretended to work more than the platoon leaders or commanders of my unit. The good ones practically live at the office. The pay difference between enlisted and commissioned officers is perfectly fair.

BS, the soldiers do the work, [censored] doesnt get done without them. Officers rarely have 24 hr duties, they have lower pt scores, they fire their weapons once a year, and do ZERO physical labor.
