Nope. Wrong again.

Technically speaking the military/government is the copyright holder because they created the base. The people living around the base are simply profiting from it.

If we put it into media context. The government/military created the movie, the base is the movie that they created. The people living around the base are the movie theaters, video stores, DVD stores and cable companies that are making money selling that money. They didn't create it, they are simply profiting from its existence.
