If you want guaranteed 80K plus after an enlistment, look into anything Cyber related, Computer Networking, Engineering, Security, etc. These are highly sought after everywhere but particularly in the D.C. area as the federal government can't get enough qualified IT and Cyber Security types. All branches have established pipelines so you'd have to look at what they are offering. Get your citizenship while in the armed forces, then get all the training you can while in whatever branch and you'll also gain what most other IT college grads won't have, experience. Good luck and thanks for serving!
