“It’s the opposite - the illegal diktat was given in violation of the UCMJ but none of those who gave it or enforced it have been charged.”
Since you have been in the military, then you should understand the difference between the military and civilian worlds. And you would already know the answer to that statement. It is not the duty of the military member to determine the lawfullness of an order from a superior unless it was proven to be a danger to members or priority A equipment. At the time the orders were given, there was no proof other than the media of danger or putting priority A property out of commission. Hence, no unlawful order.
And if you want to go after someone, you would have to go after the POTUS or the Sec. Of Def. They made the order. The rest just lawfully followed it. So they couldn’t be under article 92 actions.

It absolutely is the duty of the subordinate. An unlawful order is not to be given, and is not to be obeyed.
I witnessed it quite often. The most common ones were tied to funding or misuse of resources.
The transporters would face it often enough when someone wanted to move cargo without the proper inspection and documentation. That cargo was absolutely not going, no matter who gave the unlawful order and how many times they issued it.
There were multiple issues with commanders directing subordinates to fudge the status of resources and training reports. The subordinates absolutely called it out.
We had subordinates call out unlawful orders related to travel on government orders.
The Jim Jones Jab was unlawful through and through. Imagine, the country that held the Nuremberg trials was conducting experiments on humans in violation of it.
There was no waivers for those who already had COVID. Even General Washington didn't order the smallpox vaccine for soldiers who had already had smallpox. You saw how quickly that story disappeared from the propaganda media.
The manufacturers didn't release the contents of the shot. What exactly were the service members being ordered to take? An undefined solution with a brand name attached? They couldn't even define exactly what service members refused to take.
O M M O I R C O R N O I N C showed that the shots didn't work and they still kept the diktats in place. Even a simple vitamin, if it didn't work, would be clearly Fraud, Waste, and Abuse. In this case it was millions of dollars of government expense for something that was proven not to work and wasn't needed even if it did.
People should be sitting in Leavenworth for their roles in it.
