I couldn't find anything about what wage gap may have existed for her prior to 1964, but after June 11, 1964 until 1986 when she retired she was probably paid the same as men in the same position.
Edit: Found some more information, showing that she was likely paid the same wage as men for the same position:
"The pay and training received by the WAVES was
identical to the men's."[0].
From a biographical blurb on her:
"Rejected by the WAVES (Women Accepted for Volunteer Emergency Services) in
1942 for not weighing enough, she was finally admitted in December of 1943
and in 1944 was commissioned as a lieutenant junior grade, thus beginning
her 42-year career with the Navy and her life-long relationship with
computers."
