Let us also remember that those of our armed forces who read and understood their oath of office (and it appears that a great many more of them can do this than our congresscritters) - will simply refuse to do anything against the revolt.

I would not be too sure of that. The Milgram experiment has been revisited:

“Some things never change. Scientists said on Friday they had replicated an experiment in which people obediently delivered painful shocks to others if encouraged to do so by authority figures....Seventy percent of volunteers continued to administer electrical shocks — or at least they believed they were doing so — even after an actor claimed they were painful...”

Seventy percent.
