I sold my rental last year. I bought it in 2008, and it was my primary residence until I got orders in 2010. I meet the 2 out of 15 rule. Where do I annotate this?

If my math is correct, and my knowledge of the rules are correct, I lived in the house for 2 out of 15 years. I owned the house for 14 years, lived in it for 2 years, and I had to move due to military orders in 2010.  Am I correct in believing that I am free of capital gains tax?  I'm just having a problem of where to annotate this, unless I'm just not clicking on the right box.
