In the Federal Civil Service, and travel for work? You HAVE to have a BoA travel card. Officer or senior enlisted in the military? You HAVE to have a BoA card, no choice. And you are required, by regulation, to use the BoA card for most official travel expenses, or you don't get reimbursed for them.
