Do you have a specific book in mind that you are looking for? I might have it.
Baen.com has a large collection.
Some free.
My favorites are David Webber, John Ringo, S.M Stirling, Saberhagen, Frankowski, Pournelle,I can point you to some sites that have them posted if you PM me.

I'm not into military sci-fi but I love books about the army like W.E.B Griffin's Brotherhood of War series.

I listen to them as audiobooks while I am on the road

Check out Ender's Game
If you happened to end up on the pirate bay and in the ebooks section and you searched sci-fi and sorted by size, you might find a big enough library as a single file to keep you happy for quite a while
I haven't actually downloaded anything but I did see it there, IIRC it was about 8.5 gigs
Also, Baen has a ton of free Ebooks as mentioned, I would recommend grabbing all of them, they are sized properly for ebook readers and good with proper covers and proofreading and such which a lot of the "free" books are sadly lacking.
many of them are military Sci-Fi, good ones are the Hammer Slammers series and Lt Leary series and any of the ones by Andre Norton.
a google for free baen ebooks will bring up a list of all of them.
Most are good, and they seem to offer a whole series often rather then just the usual first book is free crap.
And the formats are nice too, with a nice cover and everything.
EDIT: http://www.bonham.net.nz/SF/Baen/WS/ws_books_dl.html
There is a complete list of the ebooks in any format.
I used DownthemAll in firefox and had it try every .LRF link, then save them to a folder.
worked great
