Folks go into the military for different reasons.
Once they're in, they follow orders.
That's how it works, and that's how it has to work.
Unless they think the orders are unconstitutional or morally wrong, they do as told.
And if they DO disobey based on the above criteria they're in for a bad time.
I'd love to see the jury comments.
