Lakin is throwing away a distinguished career

I am sorry that you feel that way. It is not Lakin's fault, if every court in the land rules, that none have the power or standing to demand a President's potential fraud be brought to light and legal justice.

What if Lakin had succeeded? Would you be the first to call him a hero then?

Lakin is doing what our military is sworn to do, in the only way he had available to do it, in a court of law. The court & judge have failed their duty to Lakin.

Lakin swore to do his duty, which is to treat wounded soldiers in Afghanistan. This, he has patently refused to do.

Those of us who swore likewise and then had to live up to our oaths in circumstances that you cannot imagine take um bridge at his publicity stunt.

Had he gotten an Army court to rule the President's orders need not be obeyed by the Army IMHO we'd be in the middle of a Constitutional crisis right now. And it would not end well for the Army.
