I think starting salary in US military is closer to $50k now. I remember Trump promised (and one of the things he actually delivered) military pay raises and that's why he has much support with veterans.

The $35k may have been referring to the sign on bonus. I don't know if sign on has gotten that high, but it was the first thing I thought of.

I always love it when I see this meme.

The stories in the comments of Americans getting pushed to the military are always wild on these.
