I doubt it.
Perhaps some of the officer corps, but MOST senior NCO’s and the average GRUNT take their oath to PROTECT AND DEFEND THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES AGAINST ALL ENEMIES, BOTH FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC pretty damn seriously.
Contrary to popular belief; even the Spec Ops people know the difference between a lawful order and a power grab.
I don’t think they are going to want to kill their brothers, sisters, parents or those of their team mates.
Personally I would be more inclined to take orders from a Sargent Major or a Master Gunny with 30+ years of service in than a politically appointed, politically correct graduate of West Point or Annapolis.
The NCO’s families live here, not in the District of Corruption.
