Overall your profile looks nice, the more important part would be to differentiate yourself from the other consultants/ product managers while showing rationale for the career pivot post MBA. This is not difficult, but something to definitely address in the applications. Being part of the firm's best team is a good achievement- you could leverage this for the essays as well as the interviews as most b-schools tend to ask team related questions. That said, do focus on your role and contribution to this positive outcome.
The mandatory military service could provide for some interesting leadership stories.
For R2 consider retaking GMAT as your R2 list is only more competitive and some of your target programs have much higher GMAT score requirements
And maybe I should retake GMAT but I'm not sure I can get more higher score...
