How do I file my taxes for free if I'm active duty military. Which of the turbo tax services can I use for free as a military member?

I previously used the "free file program" which turbo tax opted out of this year.

When you enter your military W-2 form and rank up to E9, your TurboTax becomes free automatically.  Any version of TurboTax will be free, but add on services, like MAX, Live, Audit Defense will still be charged for.
