Military folks have special residency rules.
For a military person, being posted in another state...outside their Home of record...that does not make you a legal resident of that state that you are posted to. Thus, you may get posted to CA, or HI, or MD.....but you are always a resident of FL.
As Such, you need to go back to the My Info section, and edit yourself (and spouse if married) and indicate you were a resident of FL all year, and did NOT move to-from another state...FL all year.

The only situation why you might need a GA "non-resident" tax return, is if you worked in a civilian job while off duty in GA. Unless you have such a civilian job, after fixing your state of Legal Residence in the My Info section, you should delete the GA tax return.

Your situation is not clear. It sounds like your got out of the Army in 2022 and moved to GA. In that case, you need to file a GA part year resident return. TT will treat all your income as GA income until you tell it otherwise.
For your Army W-2, be sure Florida is in box 15 and the Army amount in box 16 when you enter it.
I'm not specifically with the GA software. You may also encounter an income allocation screen, where you can tell TT that none of your Army pay is allocated to GA.
Good point...Situation is different if you left military service in 2022, and then moved to GA.
If you were active-duty military all of 2022, then your state income tax obligation is to the state that is your military SLR (State of Legal Residence). In that situation, you would have to file in GA only if you formally changed your military SLR from FL to GA during the tax year by filing DD Form 2058 with your military finance office.
