Will let you all know more when I hear more.
I have a CLF group cruise on the Carnival Spirit, 11-06-2007. I have some people booked under the military fare and some under the group rate. The military rate is significantly lower, but you do have amenities with the group rate. After all is said and done, the military rate, especially for the higher category cabins, is less.
I've got about 20 under the group rate and 10 under military rate on this sailing.
I just run the fares both ways and book the cheaper one. The military bookings are linked to the group for dining.

I'd be happy to help you in any way with your group.
