I felt the same way about those who didn’t want to deploy because Bush was “selected.”
It’s crap. The orders are legal under Title 10. All of our commissioned officers didn’t have their authority yanked just because this sorry jack@ss is the CIC.
In 2006 Army 1st Lt. Ehren Watada refused to deploy to Iraq. His court-martial ended in a mistrial, and he was discharged in 2009. Wataba claimed that as the war was illegal it would make him party to war crimes.
Why was the case against Wataba dropped? Because the Obama Administration was in power.
