When I joined the Navy in 1988, I kept my Wyoming residency because they don't have a state income tax. I had a few buddies from Massachusetts and Maryland that became Wyoming residents to avoid hefty state taxes.

After NY changed their tax policy's so that is you lived in a barracks you could not claim non-resident military satus, I quickly changed my Residence, it also helped that I got stationed in Alaska. There are many states that still tax their military residents, even thought they no longer live there. Many of us are now TX or FL residents.

Count me as one of the Utahns that was a Texan during my active service. Not only does Utah tax its military personnel out of state, but it is one of the highest state income tax rates of those that tax their military while out of state.
