Did you figure it out? 

 

The main military question shows up when you edit the individual's name in the "My Info" section....there is a whole series of questions as a part of that Edit...one of which is:

 

"I am a member or former member of the U.S. Armed Forces (active, reserve or National Guard)." 

Yes No

________________

You need to say YES to that if your spouse was Active for any part of the year.

 

The next page after that asks whether that person....entered service....or left service..or were in service the whole year....then a couple more pages that ask for some other military details.

_____________

Now, if you were referring to some other Military question later in the program.....you should note that the "My Info" setting MUST be done first.  Later questions about Military income won't show up unless the Military setting in  My Info is set properly to start with.
