Since your job was active duty military for essentially all of 2018, you would answer, YES, that you supported yourself (provided over half of your living expenses) for the year. See sample screenshot attached.

This question is being asked to determine whether someone else supported you during the year, for instance if someone were going to school and their parents were supporting them for part of the year.

Were you in the military the entire year for 2018?

Yes? I left for boot camp on Jan 16 2018. Does that count as the entire year?
