An order can be refused if the order given is ordering something illegal or immoral. In a case like that the order would still stand and the personel involved would be replaced with those willing to carry it out. Those refusing the order would in all probability be facing charges and a courts marshall. They have their rights, even in the military's UCMJ. This article's header is in the form of a question, not a statement. CNN, consider the source.

Yes military personnel CAN disobey an order if they deem it unlawful per UCMJ (Uniformed Code of Military Justice). But they better be damn sure its UNLAWFUL if they do.

The story title is in the form of a question. So that should tell you everything else in the story is pure speculation. Ignore it. This is CNN trying to change late votes.

Its a misleading question from CNN as a headline from September 7th, that is changed into a even more misleading statement of a headline here. It is hard to outfake or go lower than CNN, but you managed to do just that.
