...if you earn more if you are married then you do if you are unwed? If so does anyone know what the difference in pay is or an estimate of?

No, your base pay is the same whether you are married or single.
The only pay that increases if you are married, is your housing allowance.

base pay is the same regardless of marital status. married personnel are eligible to receive BAH at the with dependent rate, nothing else. Family Separation allowance is only applicable when the SM is away from Home port more than 30 days.
HOWEVER: getting married JUST to receive BAH is AGAINST REGS, constitutes FRAUD and WILL get you in a lot of trouble. so don't even think about a marriage of convenience.

Based pay is according to your rank and years of service. BAH is paid at a single and married rate, with the married rate being higher.

go to military.com and click on pay charts. all branchs are on the same pay scale (DoD).
its based on rank/E grade and time in service.
