“It’s drilled into most soldiers that you defend your contry and the president is the leader of the country so, therefore, the president needs defending at all costs.”

If the time ever comes, the military will devolve rapidly along racial lines, I fear.

Unfortunately, I fear you may be right. It was far more important to Colin Powell to vote for a person his color than to support his party. If the news is spun correctly we may see a divided military fighting against itself and the right-wing gun-toting whackos.

Sorry, but that's not gonna fly. Remember that the DHS memo also labeled "returning Iraq & Afghanistan war vets" as "potential terrorist threats". Our troops ain't gonna EVER forget that one.
