I recently heard that American service personnel get the best exchange rate by purchasing currency at the base. The suggestion was have a friend in the military buy your currency for you. I have no idea if this is truth or rumor, but if I were going abroad for any extended length of time, I'd look into it. It does occur to me that if true I would imagine the military would have some pretty strict rules about using this benefit simply to prevent profittering...which makes me lean toward rumor, rather than truth, but nonetheless worth posting I believe.
