People who are not in the military are called civilians. A civilian is also someone who is not on a police force or a firefighter. Military personnel wear uniforms on duty, but when off duty often wear what is called civilian clothing.Source:

Aren't police or firefighters technically civilians? My impression is that everything is divided into either military or civilian, so the government and all the branches thereof are civilian.
