Not old enough !!
It about 7 years short. My pay started Apr 1942. I remember it was $21.00 a month. Cant recall from there to 1949 where this chart starts. Do find the final E 7 Pay 1963 $378.00. Hard to leave those big bucks 🙂 SF

Old Pay-
My father enlisted in Marines in 1940; and was sent with 2nd Engineers to Hawaii to start building new facilities. He was at Pearl Harbor on Dec 7th. Survived and served in the Corps thru WWII thru Korea and was called back for Vietnam. Very interesting on the changes in pay over time.
