yes it can, especially if a bench warrant has been issued. additionally, it can bar you from receiving a Clearance.
Pay off the fine before you ship.

Yes. You will have to get a waiver for the account. They will want to know exactly why you haven't paid your bill. If they do grant you a waiver, you be required to set up payment plans to settle the debt or pay the debt off. This can also bar you from getting a security clearence. The military does credit checks on all recuits when thy do the background checks.

No. A poor credit rating won't stop you from enlisting

Nope, but kiss a security clearance goodbye.

Why not just pay it off? Take out a loan to pay for it and don't worry.

I'm pretty sure they don't care about your credit. Why don't you call recruiting and ask them? Good Luck!!
