It would seem that way - that travel is travel, but that's not the way that the law is currently written. The link posted to the article at military.com is outdated and refers to the pre-2018 revisions to the law.
Prior to 2018, this deduction was included in the broader miscellaneous itemized deductions, but that is no longer the case. Miscellaneous itemized deductions/employee business expenses were suspended for the majority of taxpayers in tax years 2018 and later.
For reservists who travel more than 100 miles from home for duty, the only expenses that are currently deductible are lodging and meals (up to the federal per diem rates) plus mileage, tolls, parking, and ferries.
These items are listed out in the instructions for Form 2106. You can find those instructions here: Form 2106.
