unclewest, I just heard a so-called expert on Nightline state in no uncertain terms - If an officer orders a soldier into combat (an ongoing battle) & that soldier only has two bullets, that soldier has no choice. He cannot refuse that order. His only choice is to obey that order or face serious consequences for disobeying a direct order. I missed what he specifically said the consequences were, but they were quite serious charges. Can you provide any insight to this? FWIW, Nightline is playing up the alleged "suicide mission" those soldiers refused to go on.
