Benefits of Joining the Coast Guard

The United States Coast Guard, as one of the five services of the United States Armed Forces, offers active duty and reserve Coast Guard men and women a competitive salary and an impressive package of benefits. Coast Guardsmen are paid based on pay grade and status, the same as other military branches. The total package of benefits provided by The US Coast Guard is better than most benefit packages provided to entry level desk jobs of civilian companies. The benefits provided by the Coast Guard includes money for college with the GI Bill, free medical, dental and eye care, and more.

  • Recruit Trainee Benefits
  • Enlisted Pay and Benefits
  • Officer Pay and Benefits
  • Reserve Enlisted Pay and Benefits
  • Reserve Officer Pay and Benefits

Beyond these material benefits are benefits that are invaluable. You’ll accomplish and do things you never thought possible. You’ll get to have experiences that just don’t materialize in the civilian world. You’ll learn how to lead, develop a sense of discipline and get a true understanding of the value of teamwork. Most importantly, you’ll experience personal growth and maturity as you’re instilled with the Coast Guard core values — honor, respect, and devotion to duty.
