Yes and no - siblings join the same military branch commonly, and have done so for many centuries. However, in the U.S. Military, siblings cannot serve in the same unit together at the same time.
The regulation that siblings cannot serve together in the same unit has been around for many decades, but until the loss of the loss of the 5 Sullivan brothers aboard the light cruiser USS Juneau (CL-52), it wasn't strictly enforced. The Sullivans enlisted under the condition that they serve together.
The regulation was enforced after the Juneau was sunk at the Battle of Guadalcanal on November 13, 1942. At the time, regulations did prohibit siblings from serving together in the same unit, but it wasn't enforced. However, however, with the loss of all 5 of the Sullivan brothers in one attack, the regulation was strictly enforced and remains so to this day.
