Wars do not happen overnight. There is a buildup, political disagreements between nations that diplomats can not or will not resolve, before any shots get fired. It only makes sense that for at least the decade for the Big War, these things were going on. So, logic would dictate that any thing as remote as a space station in orbit would keep a military presense aboard in a situation like that, even if it was ostensibly up there for scientific purposes.
