Dump the and and substitute or and you might be correct.
An E3 Airman with 2 years service supporting a spouse and 2 children serving here at Davis-Montham AB earns a yearly income of $29,048.40 (that includes housing allowance). At those wages the servicemember would be eligible for food stamps and other public assistance in 39 states.
Based on an Airmans average work week of 61.7 hours (normal tasks plus "military duty" periods) that works out to $9.05/hr. Taco Bell is hiring persons of questionable citizenship off the Tucson streets for $10.75/hr with a raise to $11.35 after one month of "service".
