The soldiers were ordered not to bomb the training exercise. They disobeyed a direct order.

My understanding of the military is that if you disobey a direct order and, by doing so, save lives, you probably won't be punished too harshly, but you probably still won't get away with it. Otherwise, you're in deep doo doo. And if someone gets killed because of your insubordination, you're in "man the lifeboats" deep doo doo (but with no lifeboat).
