Er, you are aware that the military is run and funded by the government right? G.I. means, literally, "government issue". If you wish to learn what happens in a country without a government, look no further than Zimbabwe.

Who, me?  LOL

I was a military dependent for over 34 years.  I was married to a Viet Nam Vet with two Purple Hearts.  We traveled extensively.

So yes, I would say I am quite familiar  with the military.
