I did quite a bit of travelling during my 22 year career and always had expenses like this reimbursed. You have a government credit card to cover stuff like this. You keep your receipts and file a voucher online. Once you file your voucher the money can go directly to the credit card account. I think this was blown way out of proportion by the media and people think the soldiers would have to pay the excess baggage fees out of their own pockets, which isn't the case.
