This was my concern prior to the election. Would soldiers be open to prosecution for obeying unlawful orders if the president were to be ineligible.
Good point! We sill soon find out due to the noble efforts of Dr. Orly Taitz!

No, they are carrying out the lawful orders of the person that:
a) the people of the states voted for,
b) the Electors appointed by each State elected by a wide margin,
c) that The Congress certified as the lawfully elected President,
d) who was duly sworn into office at President of the United States at noon on January 20th, 2009.
At this point, unless somebody can come up with positive proof that:
a) Barack Obama was not born an American citizen and that he knowingly hid that fact from the American people,
b) and have the United States House of Representatives, vote to impeach him on the grounds of obtaining the office fraudulently,
c) and have the United States Sente convict him on that charge and remove him from office
Then, Obama is the lawful President until noon on January 20th, 2013.
