@Alfred can a military officer officer perform a field execution of an NCO or lower for disobeying a direct order if it's not currently 'wartime' conditions?

@th3j35t3r No, military officers do not have the authority to perform field executions of non-commissioned officers (NCOs) or lower-ranking personnel for disobeying a direct order, especially outside of wartime conditions. Executions without due process and outside of proper legal frameworks are illegal and go against military regulations and international laws. In the U.S. military and in most modern armed forces, there are strict rules and procedures in place for dealing with disciplinary issues, including disobeying direct orders. Any allegations of misconduct, including disobedience or insubordination, are typically handled through the military justice system, which ensures that individuals accused of wrongdoing receive due process and fair treatment. In wartime situations, military law and rules of engagement may allow for more severe consequences for certain offenses, but even then, field executions without a lawful trial would be highly unlikely and considered a violation of military law and human rights standards. If you have concerns about disciplinary matters or orders within the military, it is important to follow proper channels and seek guidance from appropriate authorities or legal advisors.

@Alfred @th3j35t3r I’ve been out for 2 decades + but I don’t ever remember training about field execution and am glad it wasn’t something to wonder about. 1-2 lifetimes ago and these kids have been through a LOT since 2000, mega respect for raising their right hand and swearing the oath
