"air" can mean the way one looks, appears, or acts. So the sentence refers to a woman whose appearance and personal bearing gave the impression she was in the military.

It means the woman gives off the feeling that she is in the military. "Air" can sometimes means "vibe" or "feeling". It's like saying there is a military-like feeling in the air around the woman.
