There are some cases where you'd want to posts guards at what is technically a civilian building. You might want soldiers at an airport or a dock, or guarding your capitol, bank etc - even your avatar's private bedroom.
Right now, you have to somehow splice in a guard post site, which can be difficult, especially if the target location is on an upper floor. Could guard posts, as well as being a standalone building, become a mechanism by which troops are drawn from the military population just as citizens are for citizen posts - to any location? You eradicate all military presence by destroying the military homes, so I don't think it affects balance at all.
You can already do this on ships, more or less - would it be hard just to extend the system to all building types?
