Re: Department of Defense FIRST Team Sponsors?
Quite a few teams (including my own) get funding from the National Defense Education Program. There's a requirement (as far as I know) to have at least one mentor on the team work on a military base. I'm not sure if there are other requirements other than that.

It looks like there's at least one team getting funding from the National Security Agency (Team 2537), which is an entity of the DoD as well.

There also appear to be a number of teams sponsored by Tinker AFB

Good luck getting funding! I'd be interested if you can get it.
