As I said above, I imagine the most likely scenario where this shit goes sideways due to these “orders” is when you have a small group of soldiers overwhelmed by a large group of refugees. We’re not talking a My Lai scenario where the officer in charge gives the order to shoot anything that moves and the soldiers mindlessly comply. It’s a scenario where one guy panics because the situation is spiraling out of control, the one guy panic firing turns into a squad panic firing, and by the time the CO regains control or the men have emptied their mags, a whole of people lay dead and all anybody can think about is how fucked they are unless they can cook up a valid excuse.
