    You get half on the bonus once you swear in, and you get the other half on your 3rd year anniversary. Sorry for the misspelling.

    No. You will not receive the first half of your bonus until you complete AIT and return to your unit. The other half will be paid on your 3 year anniversary. Also, you swear in before BCT.
