Don't know about the leadership, but a quick googling tells me about 25% of the US military identify as Catholic. That's not nothing...
My guess is the vast majority of those are Hispanic Americans who have been Catholic since birth, and not part of the modern far-right Catholic conversion movement (like Vance).
