If a soldier is 'court martialled' what did that involve?
If a soldier is court-martialed, it involves a military trial to determine whether they have violated military law or regulations. This legal process is conducted by a panel of military officers or a judge, depending on the severity of the charges. The soldier has the right to legal representation and can present evidence and witnesses in their defense. Possible outcomes include acquittal, conviction, or other disciplinary actions, such as confinement or dishonorable discharge.
At what stage of your career can you turn down a set of military orders?
If you are not employed in the military, then you don't ever have to obey an order (unless you are on a military base or installation). If you are in the military, then any order given to you by a higher-ranked officer or NCO, or by your commanding officer, must be followed unless it violates the law. You can't ever decide to simply disobey an order just because of rank; doing so would get you court-martialled.
