Ok, I was wrong, but sort of right.

There is no "extra" compensation in your pay for these hazards. However, if you are assigned to a post with these hazards, there is a provision within DOD regs that allows them to bump up your GS rating. Fully qualified FF's at my last post were GS-7's.

That makes sense as more responsibilities and hazards warrent higher pay grades. Thats how we can have GS-11 or 12 Fire Chiefs at some installations and GS-13 or 14s at others. Thanks for the info.
