The Truth About Lawful Orders in the Military | What the UCMJ Actually Says
There’s a dangerous misunderstanding spreading about military obedience — and it hit the national spotlight when a former president claimed lawmakers should be executed for saying troops must refuse illegal orders. That claim is not only wrong — it’s the opposite of what the Uniform Code of Military Justice requires.
In this video, I break down:
• What the UCMJ actually defines as a lawful vs. unlawful order
• Why service members are obligated to refuse illegal commands
• The real meaning of General Order #6
• How Article 92, Article 118, 119, 128, and 134 apply
• What judgment looks like in real-world gray zones
