Here's the background. You're a senior E5. Your troops are in formation and you're handing out work for the day. You hand out an assignment to a fresh E2 with less than a year in and only a few months at your command. They blatantly complain and tell you to choose someone else. You calmly tell them they will do this task and they tell you to shove it and give it to someone else. How do you react?

Pretty sure after his accident, the next morning he just may want to take the assignment given to him. That is if he is physically able.

remind the private that he'd been given a lawful order by an NCO and that if you fails to follow that order he is in Jeopardy of being punished under UCMJ and then smoke his ass in the front leaning rest position for a good 45 minutes

I would instruct him to get in the front leaning rest position. Mountain Climbers, move. 1-2-3 1. 1-2-3 2 1-2-3 3- until he concedes.

Of course I would dismis the other troops. After the ordeal with the mountain climbers I would the counsel and explain his options.
