Are there any orders you wouldn't follow? What would make you draw the line and say “No I will not obey that order”?

<p>Any order that violates any portion or amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America.&nbsp; </p><p><br></p><p>We take an Oath of Enlistment, Oath of Re-Enlistment, or Oath of Office when we enter the Military, re-enlist into the Military, or accept a commission as an Officer.&nbsp; If you take that oath seriously, as it is meant to be, you will not have to wonder if your orders are lawful or not.&nbsp; This of course assumes you have a good understanding of our Constitution (to which you are swearing an oath to support and defend) and our history as a nation.</p><p><br></p><p>If you have not read our Constitution, and especially the Bill of Rights (Amendments 1-10) yet, I HIGHLY suggest you do so.</p><p><br></p>

I will not follow any order making me cheer for the Cowboys. &nbsp;Wont do it. &nbsp;Bring on the firing squad.

Many, many years ago, while both my husband and I were at Cherry Point, there was a C130 that had a certain problem. &nbsp;Now, my husband was a 'winger' who took great pride in the fact that the C130 units had not lost an aircraft to anything but enemy fire since Vietnam, and he loved those aircraft, still does, really, but the point I am making is that one day, he had a problem he simply felt was unsafe on a C130, and he stated this problem, pointing out the hazard to the crew. &nbsp;<div>&nbsp; &nbsp;They, as most air crews do, listened quite attentively and they refused to fly it, until it was repaired. &nbsp; The OIC came at my husband like a ton of bricks, demanding he sign off on the aircraft repair that he hadn't finished without the parts they were waiting on, saying that it would, in his view, manage the refuling mission easily and be back for further repairs.</div><div>&nbsp; &nbsp;Again, my husband refused, and it ended with the officer literaly screaming in his face that he would face a court martial for refusing the command. &nbsp;End result was that the higher ups agreed with my husband, and the officer was sent to Greenland as I recall.</div><div>&nbsp; &nbsp;The point is, I have to believe that, given an order &nbsp;that went against my own beliefs, I would probably ask for clarification of said order, and if I believed that order went against what I felt to be moral or ethical, I'd respectfully refuse to obey, because in the end, I have to look in the mirror a lot more than I have to look at a C.O, now, don't I?</div>
