Yes, an illegal order can be refused. But it must be clear and obvious. Also, clarification in writing can be requested. In fact it is the "duty" of a military person to refuse an order that is obviously and clearly illegal.

What to do if you receive an unlawful order
  • Seek clarification: Ask the person who gave the order for clarification, as they may be unaware of its illegality.
  • Consult a legal expert: Contact a Judge Advocate or Military Defense Attorney to get legal advice on the lawfulness of the order before taking action.
  • Refuse the order: If the order is manifestly illegal and its unlawfulness is clear and obvious, you have a duty to refuse it. Be aware that refusing an order can still carry risks, so legal counsel is highly recommended.
