It will pick up Military codes but it won't show a position.
Re: SBS Box
I do not have personal radar box, but I have Planeplotter, this is awsome, not only can you see your own local airspace, but large chunks of the rest of the world also, and with the MLAT option, you will be able to follow some military flights, take a look in the Mode-s section of the World Wide Military Monitoring section on here, there is a plane plotter section.

Hi Andy,
The SBS is a fantastic development, but as aforementioned it will not show Military positions, but it will show data - Hexicode, Serial (if tied up), Callsign, squawk code etc. I have an SBS, which I share Raw data with Planeplotter - then planeplotter correlates the information from alot of SBS's round the UK. Knowing each boxes coordinates and with some complicated maths, it tries to resolve the positions of military aircraft - with a good rate. But the system is only as good as the information in, thus if you have an SBS and you can share that data with Planeplotter, then we all benefit
Cheers
