Lakin is not calling for his removal........he is saying the pres does not have the authority to command/issue orders.

Lakin is not charged with disobeying Obama's orders but the lawful orders of three of his superior officers. Among other things.

Great, so you think that only Generals have the right to disobey illegal orders?

That seems to be the problem that occurred in Germany in the 1930's and a lot of soldiers were later tried for crimes over.

“Lakin is not charged with disobeying Obama’s orders but the lawful orders of three of his superior officers. Among other things.”

1 I read this “”Let me see if I understand this, Col. Lakin can get a more severe punishment that Ahmed Ghailani?” which I hope is wrong but it looks like it may be true.

2 The case has to do with this “No one in his chains of command or in his Congressional delegation could tell him— after more than a year of seeking assurance that his orders were lawful— if Obama met the requirements of Article II, Section 1 of the U.S. Constitution of a “natural born citizen” and was entitled to command the U.S. Armed Forces. LTC Lakin’s military orders to deploy to Afghanistan under Obama’s announced surge, included a requirement that he present copies of his birth certificate (to which he dutifully complied)” Lakin is not follow commands because he believes Obama is on illegitimate president the judge kicked out a good part of that!
