47SK Question 49 and 51 (Military Service)

I served in the military (South African Airforce). I obviously have to answer yes to question 51 but what about 49 (last question)? Are they the same thing or is 49 refering to "private/rebel" armies etc?

All help appreciated.

Still...a workmate did it the same way and his went through ok!!
