You are 100% correct. During induction training at boot camp, they had a special class just for this issue and they drummed that into your head at subsequent training; that was 1971 - 1975 when I went through it.

You're both correct. And if this Marine ever did follow any such un-Constitutional or unlawful orders from a CO, you should be able to guarantee a court-martial for murder. In addition he would be breaking the law according to Posse Comitatus.

Sounds like Sgt. Stein is due for a nice promotion in rank to me!;)
