With two sons on active duty let me make it clear to you that you would not cut it in today's military. They are locked, loaded and willing to defend the Constitution that clearly you have forgotten
Myself, all four brothers and father have served in the military. Our oath is to the constitution and the republic - the rule of law. The military is under civilian control - you dont get to decide what is constitutional or not - the court does. And we accept that court decision and defend it whether we like it or not. Further - we are sworn to obey the orders of officers appointed over us and the President of the US.
They might be but their commanders aren't. Anyone who thinks the military is gonna play any role at all, besides potentially a negative one, remains fooled.
Lol, my boys are probably older than you and I am probably older than your grandfather. My oldest son is a full bird Colonel and my youngster is a Major.
They both just were ordered to return to the US, along with about 20% of the enlisted and officers under their command, but with no specific orders, but to leave their families, one in Korea and one back from Japan.
Of course I have no idea what they are being told because they are both offline
But
Don't worry there are many versions of the silent majority.
That's great, I hope they're not the minority. Unfortunately the military has a documented 80+ year history of corruption, mostly documented by ex-military officers.

Even as a retired officer, Trump is my Commander In Chief, period!

The bad guys are generally the money grabbing military industrial complex and the active duty guys just looking for that cushy dod contractor job.
