“Government and military servers” tend to run Windows ;-) SELinux looks nice on paper - another box to check - but it’s just another mitigation later, not something that can be considered “trusted”.

Microsoft Server systems for government use have been audited and have strict controls for implementation, hardening, securing, etc.

They're probably more secure than BSD.
