Military personnel, who would you side with?

[QUOTE="wildride02gt, post: 12591169, member: 104888"] before these orders ever got to a unit level, upper level commanding officers would threaten to leave, and take the soldiers with them. The Pentagon would never go through with this. Most soldiers still have their morals, and truly believe in values. Illegal and immoral orders have been given before, and officers, NCO's, and soldiers have refused to follow them. I offer the Army as an example. I served under GEN Odierno at Ft. Hood, TX when he was CG of the 4ID, and served with him in Iraq. He is an honest man, a soldiers soldier, and would never follow orders such as those in question. I believe that a very large portion of the militaries senior officers would choose to side with the people, not the government, and would be taking their soldiers and equipment with them. We soldiers are family, and our families and the veterans are part of that family. The elected officials that would be issuing these orders are not part of that family. Anyways, if this scenario was to begin to take place, then the bulk of the military will side with the people, the public, and the government will lose. [/QUOTE]
