John is correct. There are different types of extra pay, but they don't have anything for tech related jobs. The allowances in the Army are for things like jumping out of a plane, scuba diving, foreign languages, combat pay, etc. The Army still has this attitude that if you aren't outside all day, running around yelling at people, then you must not be doing any work. I'm not sure if that will ever change.
