The military uses JP-8 while commercial aircraft uses Jet-A. I know they are similar enough that military aircraft can use Jet-A if they have to. Not sure about the difference. I personally observe the great majority of persistant contrails to be coming from commercial craft though. There are also not nearly as many military large jets as commericial jets as well.
