State tax filing

I really appreciate the help!! It makes sense, but the federal gov (DoD) as an employer part is what's complicating it for me. 

 

I don't understand why does paying taxes to GA mean anything since I work for the federal government? The fed gov is in every state. My thoughts are this is similar to active duty, in that they only pay taxes based on their home of record (residency). I know active duty military isn't the same as civilian, but I would think the thought process is the same.
