The picture you're painting is that people can not shoot people they have been ordered to shoot if they don't want to. I've asked you if it's ok to refuse orders, and you completely sidestepped that.

since i was criticizing you for dodging points ill go a bit more into detail for you on this one, i like giving people insight into actual military goings on that haven't been sensationalized for profit by media organizations
if the hypothetical situation came up where i was ordered by a higher ranking officer to just "kill" someone who did attack me first or even if they did, no i would not have to do it.
later they could bring me to a ucmj trial i suppose (they never would its an enormous inconvenience for everyone involved) where i would be tried for refusal to follow an order. and I could just say i was anxious or didn't feel competent to make the decision at the time and I would never be convicted/punished
