I would happily do this work if it was accessible and lucrative. I think plenty of SV nerds would. I don't doubt that there is a significant contingent that are politically opposed like you describe, but I don't think the compensation can match what is being offered these days for talent.

I have no moral issues with (most) code related DOD work, but it just doesn't pay comparably.

It is accessible and quite lucrative. My biggest customer was the US Navy. We did great things.
