Thanks for the advice. I did see when doing research to get a debit card that is cheap to use oversees so I guess that's along the same lines.
As emma69 pointed out, you're barely going to have $17k assuming you spend none of the pay you get during basic and AIT. That said, you have your senior year of high school to start working on this $20k your budgeting for.

Also, is a job where you get 4-6 weeks of vacation time (minimum) something you're confident you can get?
