Which is why I mentioned it.

Here is the version I posted. As far as I know, it is accurate.
Please feel free to post your own. If it is any different, I am
sure we will all know soon enough.
-=begin=-
The wordings of the current oath of enlistment and oath for
commissioned officers are as follows:
"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."
I have one question for every commissioned officer in this land.
Just one -
"Do you intend to obey illegal orders from the President?"
-=end=-
The Constitution is noted first in my copy. I do pray it is the
same with yours.
Oath (or Affirmation) of Office for President -
"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute
the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best
of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the
United States." - Article II, Section 1
Nothing else is stated.
You have publicly stated that you are (or have been) a commissioned
officer. The president is commander-in-chief, which is a military rank.
IOW, the president is your superior. Your CO, or commanding officer.
Your CO has given you an order to shoot, with live ammo, other
Americans. Do you comply? Even if those other Americans are just
young black kids stealing shoes from department stores.
This very situation happened in New Orleans after Katrina.
Fortunately for those young black kids, General Honor� refused
to comply with his CO's request.
Today's officers have no balls, as shown by their recent actions.
