You get military loans through the Veterans Administration or what is called a VA loan. You have to meet the requirements such as being an active, serving member or veteran of the military or a surviving member of the veteran or active member. It's one of the benefits of being in the military, no matter what branch.

Your family members or immediate relatives are also eligible for military loans providing they can meet the necessary VA requirements. In today's economy, everyone can use a little help and a loan from the military with its lower interest rates can help in times of financial troubles.

The interest rate of military loans is lower but it still depends on the amount of money you borrow, your credit score, and any collateral. Collateral, depending on how much you want to borrow, can be a house, car, or even a boat. It always depends on your history and financial needs to get a lower interest rate on a loan.
Again, depending on how much you want to borrow, you can get military loans for a long as 10 years or longer. It wouldn't help your financial future to make payment for longer than that. The interest rate alone will suck a lot of money from you. When considering a loan make sure you can pay it off in a reasonable amount of time.
