    Desperate To Retain Troops, Army Offers $90K Reenlistment Bonuses

    Desperate To Retain Troops, Army Offers $90K Reenlistment Bonuses

    The military tends to cut to much and then scrabble to rebuild. Wow, $90K to reenlist!

    The Army’s inability to fill its ranks may mean mad money for soldiers considering reenlistment. As the branch struggles to increase troop levels, it’s increasing its bonus budget request for fiscal year 2018 threefold to more than $380 million, reports the Associated Press.

    Roughly translated, some soldiers may be eligible to receive $90,000 up front when they sign on to serve an additional four years or more.


    Army force levels are set grow by an additional 16,000 soldiers by October, bringing the total number of troops to 476,000. During his campaign, President Donald Trump had suggested he wanted to grow the Army to 540,000 active-duty soldiers.
