field allowance Explanation: "Field allowance compensates for the requirement to live and work in uncomfortable conditions in the field as well as the curtailment of home contacts, inability to use leisure time effectively and the liability to work exceptionally long and irregular hours." |

hardship duty pay Explanation: Felttillegg is additional pay given to service members that are serving in the field, in the U.S. military this is called hardship duty pay. I am sure that the British military will have a similar term, so check their websites if you are translating to UKEN rather than USEN.
