I think you have misunderstood the tax law. It's not true that you don't have to pay tax on the gain from selling your home if you are in the military. In order to exclude the gain, you have to have owned and lived in the home for 2 years. Being in the military, and moving for a PCS, does not eliminate that requirement. It may give you a much longer window to meet the 2-year requirement, but you still have to meet it at some point. If you sold your home without ever having owned and lived in it for a total of 2 years, you do not qualify for the full exclusion of gain. You might qualify for a partial exclusion of gain.
In IRS Publication 523, Selling Your Home, see "Service, Intelligence, and Peace Corps personnel" on pages 4 - 5.
In IRS Publication 3, Armed Forces' Tax Guide, see "Gain or Loss From Sale of Home" on pages 17 - 18.
Many military bases have someone who helps service members with their taxes. That person will certainly be familiar with all of these rules. You might want to consult that person.
