I can think of many good causes that a person in the military could have, that would have nothing to do with their military service. My day job, for instance, prohibits me from having a firearm on the premises or even in the parking lot. My business - which I work at off hours - gives rise to circumstances that make a CCW reasonable.

The military residency issue is interesting, and I think above our skills. I ain't no lawyer, but I'd suspect federal law on residency for military personnel would trump state law. It probably doesn't matter since we're talking about Solano county, but in a more reasonable county it would be an interesting question.

A guy I work with lives in Florida. He owns a home there. He's on extended assignment in California. He and his wife are staying in an apartment paid for by the company. They fly home every 4-6 weeks for a few days. When the project is done, he's going back to Florida. He's a Florida resident - even though he has to pay California income taxes on the money he makes while he's here.
