Your base pay, as reported on your DFAS W-2, will be federally taxable income. PA, however, exempts active-duty military pay if you were assigned outside PA. 

Enter your DFAS W-2 exactly as you received it.

Active duty military pay is not subject to PA personal income tax if earned by a PA resident serving full-time active duty or federal active duty for training outside the state. However, other income earned, received or realized is taxable. Service members must submit copies of military orders assigning out-of-state active duty with tax returns. 

For additional information on how PA taxes military pay, see: http://www.revenue.pa.gov/FormsandPublications/FormsforIndividuals/Documents/Personal%20Income%20Tax...
