does the 85,700 apply for each spouse or only one spouse? Also, do both spouses need to meet the 330 day test?

Does the exclusion include the US soliders that are currently overseas?

If both you and your spouse work abroad and you and your spouse meet either the bona fide residence test or the physical presence test, you and each choose the foreign earned income exclusion. You do not both need to meet the same test. Together, you and your spouse can exclude as (if you qualify) can effectively exclude up to $171,400.
