This does not sound completely strange, but still incorporates some
problems (all currently tagged landuse=military will get deprecated).
I don't see the big problem here, as you can
1. draw a landuse=military around the whole area (and probably
military=barracks)
2. draw a landuse=forest around the actual forest
3. draw a landuse=school around the actual school (or building=school
for the school-building)
4. draw and tag the parking_lot where it is.
IMHO landuse=military is already what you want to express with
boundary=military. The boundary-object can be tagged as
barrier=fence/wall/whatever with entrances, gates, videosurveillance
etc.
cheers,
Martin
