I'm active duty military. My home of record is Illinois. They don't take out state taxes and I don't have a state EIN on my w-2 ever. Do I need to file a state return?

No, if your only source of income is the military income then no need to file a state return. If you have other income you may need to file a state return. See the Illinois Department of Revenue link: http://tax.illinois.gov/QuestionsAndAnswers/100.htm
