Amazing. Back when I served, disobeying an order would get you locked up in the brig. The fact that this episode would so quickly get swept under the rug speaks volumes.

Question, and I'm showing my ignorance here.... my understanding that he did not disobey the order, he questioned the order's legitimacy.

Is there a difference, or am I splitting hairs here?
