TAD, the Secret to Making More Money

Another way of making more money while in the military is by traveling. While in Temporary Duty status, you earn something on top of your income called, per-diem. It is pretty good. In my last TAD, I earned $410 for 8 days of travel. That is supposed to supplement the cost of taxis, bus and train fare and any cost you may incur while in travel status. If you spend more than what they give you, it's your bust.

My last trip, I went to Sasebo and Iwakuni. Above are some pictures of Iwakuni.
