I usually always get a refund. Depending on deployed time, it can be a lot or not so much, but I don't remember a year since I started filing taxes that I haven't gotten a refund.

Honestly I think its more of a question for the Army / HR within the army. While a CPA could help you calculate what should be withheld, we can't change the amount the Army withholds, that's up to them. All you could do is basically take it in to them and ask to reduce withholdings based on prior years and calculations.
Do you donate to charity and other things - is that what is driving the refund? Because they can't predict (nor will they) that.
