The order of his brigade commander is a lawful order, and I cannot imagine how the defense can demonstrate that it was not. LOL, didn't you learn anything in Basic Training, son? It's called a Chain of Command:
Lakin's brigade commander's Command Authority stems from General Casey's Command Authority, which comes down from the SECDEF (another non-elected official) -and- the POTUS/CinC, comprising the NCA.Only ONE of these people in the Chain of Command is NOT appointed to his post, and thus can also be removed by the same man at the top — Barack Hussien Obama. The entire reason Lt Col Lakin is deploying in the FIRST PLACE is because his (defacto) Commander-in-Chief has issued Military Directives to continue fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan ...
