I'm active duty. I can tell you from my experience far more than 70% of the armed forces lean right. I'm in a VERY mixed unit right now that's about 50/50 but this is by far the most centered as far as political ideology goes. I am Air Force and while we probably do have the least amount of conservatives, it's still higher than 70%, believe me.
I also have a very strong suspicion that should civil war ever actually break out (which I personally very much doubt) there wouldn't be much support from individuals in the DoD to stop conservatives from forcibly taking over the government.
This is all just my opinion and experience from 14 years enlisted.
