One more thing
That cable does not look like a original part. Make sure when you replace it its of the proper amperage rating to turn the motor over. Can't have to big an amperage capacity but you can have to little.
Connection
I have seen this happen before on other things. Most likely the battery cable connection to the starter was loose, dirty, or wet/corroded or some combination of all three. I like to clean then all up (assuming solenoid bolt and nut reusable) and use those serrated (star I believe...

Voltage draw
Another way to check for a voltage draw is to disconnect the cable from the battery clamp and put a 24 volt light in between (clamp on one side probe on the other) the battery and the cable (it will light up if there is much of a draw---one assumes a 24 volt buzzer would work too)...

Happy motoring.
I put a keyed battery disconnect in mine in the floorboard of the passenger's side. There is a dimple in the floor board and if you drill it out it puts the switch very close to the starter. It is accessible from the driver's seat and would-be thief won't be looking for it there. Just...
Pedal stroke
I would guess 2-3 inches is normal. Some is needed because that is the amount of fluid that needs to be released so that the brake shoes can move away from the brake drums. I am not sure of the proper military spec (movement) though.
