No, there is something called the Uniform Code of Military Justice. Perhaps you have heard of it ? When you enter the military, you abide by that. You don't get to choose your orders.

I agree 100%. But again I ask why should a child born abroad to a US service member and his spouse while on a deployment overseas, granted that they are both US citizens, have met the US residency requirements and register the birth at the US consulate, not be afforded the same citizenship a NBC, as would be granted to the children of US diplomats born abroad?

I agree with you on that. Unfortunately, that is the law. Short of an amendment, there is nothing you can do.
