I'm being asked if my pension received was from employment as a public safety employee. My pension is from 20 yrs military service. Is that considered public safety?

I'm a U.S. military retiree.  Is that considered public safety?  I'm inclined to think so.  But, its not law enforcement or fire fighting.

"Public safety officer" does not include military.  See this previous TT answer:  https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/2543844-what-does-employed-as-a-public-safety-officer-mean
