I haven't looked at it in awhile but I think the military is around 20% of the federal budget. The big items are Medicare/Medicaid/Social Security. Maybe interest on the debt.
20% (assuming that's what it is) is still no small amount but I'm personally doubtful there would be some sort of sea change in what's possible if it were cut in half or even eliminated.
