Yes, you are correct. See the following FAQ for state residency rules for active duty military members: https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/3300147.

Double-check your entries in the Personal Info Tab. Even though you were stationed in Mississippi, answer “no” to the question “Did you live in another state besides [home state]” and “no” to the question “Did you earn money in another state besides [home state]?” Active-duty military are only considered residents of their state of record, not the state of deployment. If filled out correctly, it should eliminate your tax due to Mississippi.
