3. Do not worry. There are serious repercussions available under the UCMJ for prosecuting ...

... enlisted and commissioned personnel.

4. If they are receiving military benefits that goes on a budget line (i.e., other than base access)

They are subject to the UCMJ and can lose benefits.
Only former military who did not have enough time in to retire are not eligible for a pension or disability are exempt. And those particular members can not re-enlist/re-commission after participating in something like Jan 6th to finish out the time in service to be able to retire.
Many military members leave service for a couple years to try civilian life or take care of family, then rejoin for the retirement and other benefits for themselves and their dependants. Those are the ones who will feel the consequences the hardest, even if they don't go to jail.
