There will be more courtmartials, but of a slightly different nature, and higher up. This soldier is saving lives by enduring this willingly, and saving my spirit as well.

1st Lieutenant Bashaw, what an honest and courageous man together with high integrity of self and protection of others by standing by his beliefs of not following wrongful orders.

What a champ. A former airforce NCO too, gets more respect from me. "Don't call me sir, I work for a living!"

What did he serve as? Medic?

Anyway. Good for him standing his ground. Takes balls.

Isn't Col Vindman that delusional nut who was celebrated by the Woke Brigade for testifying against Trump in his impeachment for not being sufficiently subservient to the leader of Ukraine?

Like the National Science Foundation going woke turning America's STEM into gender and race police, our military seems to be about overthrowing America with a maoist cultural revolution.

Mark is a badass. Utmost respect for him. I shared with hope, people realize the depth of corruption at which we are all up against.

This is a very strategic step towards totalitarian rule: purge the military of anyone possessing strong critical thinking skills, moral character, logical reasoning and intellectual courage.

Isn't Vindman the Ukrainazi who was up to his eyeballs in the plot to overthrow the Trump presidency? If so, it only goes to show that it's easier to take the Nazi out of Ukraine than it is to get the Nazism out of a Ukrainazi.

He demonstrates the Army values of integrity and courage, as did Army Specialist Michael New, who refused to don U.N. uniform items and serve under U.N. command, back in 1994 or so. He joins the more recent examples as well of former Air Force Lt Col Matthew Lohmeier and former Marine Lt Col Stuart Scheller, both of whom gave up their military careers and pending retirement pay and benefits in exchange for doing what is right in their own eyes (and with which I agree). To have this prosecution and conviction gloated over by one of the Ukrainian-agent Vindman brothers, whose military careers sailed along on due course, is particularly galling.

These were not lawful orders. Despite all claims to the contrary, you cannot be ordered to submit your body to experimentation. If you could, then the military would admit and promote all of the operations they did testing their own soldiers in decompression chambers, and would hail the men who participated as heroes.

Excuse the language..this is bullshit. The judge that would decide to have this soldier should never have been court martialed. Every single one if these people that are not Dr's or scientists have no right to demand these things from a soldier. If the order is unlawful and not back by true science and I feel that has been established then how can this be lawful. The people at the top need to be removed and every person in the military that was kicked out needs to be reinstated and their record cleaned. I am pissed.
