Those Poor Widdle Kiddles!

According to this story from Fox, not all of the vehicles in the convoy that refused to take fuel and water out were armored, du to a lack of steel plate.

Poor Babies!

While the Marines might send its troops into a dangerous situation, the Army of One will not send its people into a known "suicide mission". And while under normal conditions, being in a Quartermaster unit might be safe, these are not normal times.

Bottom line: the orders to perform the mission were not illegal orders. These 18 troops knowingly and deliberately refused to obey said direct orders. Regardless of who the instigator may be, all troops are equally guilty (in my eyes) of said refusal, and each should be eligible for 'six, six and a kick'.

When you voluntarily put on the Green (or Tan) Suit, certain inherent dangers may arise. If you 'only joined for the college plan', you're fucked.
