If are troops aren't granted immunity won't the DoD have to change the Oath that one takes when joining the military. Maybe someone out there can help me out--- "...defend the Constitution...obey the orders of commissioned officers both domestic and foreign.

.....obey the orders of commissioned officers both domestic and foreign.....

It's called the Oath of Enlistment:

"I DO SOLEMNLY SWEAR (OR AFFIRM) THAT I WILL SUPPORT AND DEFEND THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES AGAINST ALL ENEMIES, FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC; THAT I WILL BEAR TRUE FAITH AND ALLEGIANCE TO THE SAME; AND THAT I WILL OBEY THE ORDERS OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES AND THE ORDERS OF THE OFFICERS APPOINTED OVER ME, ACCORDING TO REGULATIONS AND THE UNIFORM CODE OF MILITARY JUSTICE. SO HELP ME GOD."
