Gen. Michel M. Russell Sr., director of operations in the Office of the Deputy Chief of Staff, G-4, during a family forum at the virtual annual meeting of the Association of the U.S. Army.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Army did a cost-benefit analysis and identified where the problems were for soldiers, he said. \u201cWe\u2019re working with the other services to try to increase weights across the board so that we can give some relief to all ranks and grades, not just portions of officers, NCOs, enlisted, but everybody across the board.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Service members are given specific weight allowances for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/pay-benefits\/2020\/06\/17\/as-military-moves-restart-its-still-a-pcs-season-like-none-other-heres-what-families-need-to-know\" target=_blank>household goods<\/a> moves. For example, an E-4 with dependents is allowed 8,000 pounds; a single E-4 is allowed 7,000 pounds. An O-4 with dependents is allowed 17,000 pounds; a single O-4 gets 14,000 pounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Those who exceed that weight allowance may pay several hundred to several thousand dollars in excess weight charges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During a recent forum of the National Defense Transportation Association, some members of the moving industry discussed their concerns about the current weight allowances, especially the impact on junior enlisted members with families, where there appear to be more incidents of overweight charges. There have also been an increasing number of service member requests for re-weighs of their household goods shipments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Army spokeswoman Ellen Lovett said the Army\u2019s analysis of weight allowances is ongoing, and no further details are yet available.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The services are looking at increases across
