Military Mileage Log for PCS and Official Travel
PCS moves and TDY trips involve real out-of-pocket driving costs, but most mileage apps treat military travel as an afterthought — lumping it under generic "Business" with no way to separate it for reimbursement vouchers or tax filing.
MileHawk includes a dedicated Military rate category built for service members tracking PCS moves and official travel in their personal vehicles. Log odometer readings at each leg of the trip, add a purpose note, and export a clean PDF or CSV when it is time to file a travel voucher or reconcile at tax time. Free to use, with unlimited trips and cloud backup.
Frequently asked questions
Does MileHawk have a dedicated military mileage rate category?
Yes. MileHawk includes a Military rate category alongside Business, Charity, and Medical. When you log a trip under Military, MileHawk applies the correct IRS rate for Armed Forces members moving under orders, keeping that mileage separate from personal or business trips in your reports.
What types of military travel can I log in MileHawk?
MileHawk is suitable for PCS (Permanent Change of Station) moves, TDY (Temporary Duty) travel in a personal vehicle, and other official travel where you are driving your own car and tracking miles for reimbursement or tax purposes. Each trip type can be labeled with a purpose note for documentation.
How is the military mileage rate different from the business rate?
The IRS sets a specific rate for Armed Forces members who move under a military order. This rate may differ from the standard business rate. MileHawk stores the current IRS military rate and applies it when you select the Military category, so your reimbursement math is always based on the correct figure.
Can I export my MileHawk report for finance office submission?
Yes. The PDF export from MileHawk includes date, vehicle, starting and ending odometer, purpose, and calculated miles per trip, along with a total. This format is readable by most finance offices and can be submitted alongside official travel vouchers as supporting documentation.
Can I track both military and personal mileage in the same app?
Yes. MileHawk supports multiple rate categories and multiple vehicles in a single app. You can log a TDY trip under Military and a personal errand under a different category. When you generate a report, you can filter by category so only military miles appear.
Is MileHawk free for military members?
MileHawk is free to download and use with no subscription. The app is supported by non-intrusive mobile ads. Unlimited trips, cloud backup, and export features are all available at no cost.
