A newly released analysis of the earning power of veterans appears to show that women veterans benefit more in post-service earnings compared to women who have never served than male veterans do when compared to men who have never served.
A U.S. Census Bureau comparison of veteran and nonveteran earnings, based on 2005 information, shows that female veterans earn an average of $4,945 per year more than nonveteran females while the salary difference is just $2,248 per year for male veterans when compared to males who never served in the military.
