That sounds exactly like what Judge Denise Lind did to Lt Col Terry Lakin in his court-martial.

You would think the military would know better. But then, Lind ruled that foreign combat orders don’t have to be ordered by the Commander-in-Chief in order to be lawful, even though the Authorization to use Force put the decisions in the sole discretion of the Commander-in-Chief. Who knew that American forces could be ordered to foreign combat operations without the consent of either Congress or their appointed legally-authorized representative, the Commander-in-Chief?

That whole decision was so that Lind could refuse Lakin his only defense, which was that he disobeyed orders because he had no way to know whether they were authorized by a Constitutional Commander-in-Chief as required by both the Constitution and the Authorization to Use Force.

She denied him any defense. Just like Freisler.
