    In this episode of Freedom Over Fascism Live, Dr. Stephanie Gerber Wilson interviews Treb Courie, the legal director of the Orders Project. They discuss the complexities of military law, the role of the Orders Project in assisting service members with legal issues, and the implications of international law on military operations. The conversation also covers the legal boundaries of orders given to service members, particularly in the context of domestic deployments and operations in the Caribbean. Courie emphasizes the importance of understanding the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) and the law of armed conflict, as well as the challenges faced by service members in navigating these legal landscapes. Takeaways The Orders Project assists service members with legal advice. Service members must follow lawful orders unless manifestly unlawful. The UCMJ governs military discipline and justice.
