Military has long been heavily Republican, especially in the officer ranks. We are actually finding a shift in the military similar to the general public, where the more educated are becoming more Democratic. The way Trump is treating national security issues is part of that. More of the officers are likely Dems today than 5 years ago, while the enlisted ranks are probably equally Republican.
