It can be forced by other factors.

Soldiers don't get a choice, neither do certain other public
employees in the UK.


Job is generally a lifestyle choice.

Most soldiers I know actually have a private house which will be home

That's a very 'US centric' state of afairs.

Most of the world's soldiers don't earn enough to own a house
