Its actually stated quite explicitly in Howling Wilderness that that is the case. I recall a passage where it describes ad hoc meetings between MilGov and CivGov patrols along their shared border in one of the Great Plains states, with soldiers stopping for a drink and a smoke and an exchange of news. Not officially sanctioned but clearly tolerated (and no doubt tacitly encouraged by higher commands if useful intel came out of such meetings).
