Yes. The commander in chief of the US military is a civilian, and will always be in ultimate control of the military. This is one of the major tenants of the construct the founders put in place to guard against the military seizing power.
Commander and Chief
The Secretary of Defense is the major department head with authority over the US military. The Secretary of Defense is a civilian appointed by the President and is responsible for the overall management and direction of the Department of Defense, which includes the branches of the military.
There are not many advantages of a military government over a civilian government. One thing that may be considered an advantage is that a military government is always ready to defend its country.
They have no authority to do so.
In our system of checks and balances we keep control over the military by having civilians overseeing the military to keep them from being too powerful and overthrowing the government, civilians approve the budget for each service and a civilian is the head of each branch of the service.
