Scope and Content: Members of the armed forces do not acquire residence in a given community merely by reason of being stationed there. They are not, however, precluded while in service from obtaining a new residence in a community off a federal post. Whether they have abandoned their former residence and acquired a new one is a question of fact to be determined from their actions, as well as their declared intent. Persons living upon a military post under exclusive federal jurisdiction may not by reason thereof obtain residence in this state and the political subdivision in which the post is located. This is true of civilians as well as servicemen.
