air force basic training pay?

[shell]

my husband is in the enlistment stage of this whole thing and most of the time hard to get a hold of the recruiter so i am asking here we would like to know what his pay would be durning basic and tech school we also have a daughter together and i have two other kids dont know if that comes into play with pay so i thought i would tell you but i wanted to make sure i was reading everything right in what i found out looking around online oh he is also signing for 6 years so i think they said after basic or tech he goes to an E3 . . . so during basic he would be E1 or E3 not sure so if he was E1 he would get paid 1300 (rounding) for base pay because under 4mos we live in Tacoma, Wa so he would get BAH of 1200 and than if gone for 30 or more get 250 on top of that without taking taxes out and also what is this i read about getting a food allowance does that get added in there is just so many things to think about i just dont know what it is and than i hear 250 to 350 taking out of 1st paycheck for him to spend while he is there for stuff that isnt free. . . also would it be smart to just start saving now for a just in case we dont get the paycheck with the right amount on it cause i have heard stories about that too just afraid i wont have money to pay for everything we need also i dont work only him because i stay at home to take care of our daughter . . . i am just worried that some how he could get a check for 400 and i would be stuck with trying to pay the bills
