Will they obey orders to violate their military oaths? I mean I realize we can't guarantee they won't, but I just think a lot of the rank and file would not be willing to fire on their fellow citizens.
I agree but that's how you might have a shooting war (or at least significant skirmishes). If some of them obey and others don't.
