historic military vehicle rallies (events)
Since we are talking specifically about military vehicles here.
Normally you would say "entered in classic/vinate/historic car/vehicle rallies"

"vintage" of course, although this applies to specific production dates

vintage vehicle rally
You have 4 options as I see it:
vintage vehicle rally
military vehicle rally
military and vintage vehicle rally
vintage military vehicle rally
what it says is the first one, but if you're sure it purely military vehicles then probably the second would be better. 3 and 4 would be for pedantic types because rallies for modern military equipment are called 'wars'

Note from asker:
| I certainly agree with your last comment. Hoowever, I don't know if I can use 'vintage' because I don't know when the vehicles were built (I'm sure I could find out but it's somewhat beyond my brief). They could be 'veteran' etc. - have a look at the URL I put in the question - it's quite useful, I think. :-) |
