Question, why did they follow an illegal order? Didn't they here what Mark Kelly said about refusing an illegal order?!!
Article 92 and Obeying Orders
Under the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ), Article 92, service members must obey lawful orders. Failure to obey a lawful order can lead to serious punishment, including court-martial.But there is a key qualifier: the order must be lawful. If an order is manifestly illegal, service members not only may refuse it — they have a duty to do so. Obeying an illegal order can expose a service member to criminal liability.
When Is an Order “Manifestly Illegal”?
Not every questionable order counts. Courts have held that for an order to be manifestly illegal, its unlawfulness must be clear and obvious. Classic examples include:- Orders to target civilians.
- Orders to falsify official documents.
- Orders to commit crimes such as theft or assault.

It seems they did it before the reminder, and likely because they wanted to keep their jobs. They thought it would never come out.
Fuck you asshole. You supported the assassination of your president so, fuck you!

How many times have you creamed your shirts this morning?
That is a dumb lie that only a clueless, mentally deranged halfwit like you would glom onto.
That someone would be you. I am amused that you believe that hearsay, innuendo and unnamed sources constitute evidence of a crime however. That is truly dumb and lame.
There you go with the stupid lies again. I don't think you can post without lying and looking like a gullible dimwit.
MORON ALERT!!!
