I think starting salary in US military is closer to $50k now. I remember Trump promised (and one of the things he actually delivered) military pay raises and that's why he has much support with veterans.

The $35k may have been referring to the sign on bonus. I don't know if sign on has gotten that high, but it was the first thing I thought of.
