OPLAN, CONPLAN, RFF, Movement Orders....too much detail. The point you are making is that the ultimate authority of command comes from the President. That is true.

Now, in practice, there are delegated authorities that play into this.

Here is a question I’ve asked repeatedly trying to get a direct answer. So far, nobody has been able to provide one. Giving it another try.

Exactly what rights and responsibilities does an Commissioned Officer in the US Military have afforded to them, under the UCMJ or any other legally binding document, if they believe an unlawful order has been given to them directly by a superior officer?
