My meaning is that civilians run the military. It’s not the military’s job to question the government’s orders unless they are unconstitutional. It’s the military’s job to execute to the best of their ability.

JimRob,

this person has no business on Free Republic in my opinion. Needs the zot.

Hilarious. I support the constitution, and the military, against people who are either ignorant of both or intentionally ignoring how the country is supposed to work, and that's a bad thing.

Is your position that the military should intentionally disobey its instructions from Congress? Do you realize what that means?

From the linked article: As a Soldier, we do what we’re told. I will enforce all laws, regulations, and policies affecting my service as all good professionals do, regardless of my personal feelings on the matter.
