* In the US military, the ranking NCO may relieve an officer of command by lethal force under serious extenuating circumstances. Whether this becomes only a temporary promotion or a possible court martial depends on the intense review as to whether mission objectives and/or personnel were preserved. But during Vietnam's long deployments and inconsistent contact with chain of command, delays in review could leave a sergeant in command for a long time.

Where in the UCMJ, NCO Guide, or Handbook for NCO's does it grant such authority? Since all three documents are public domain, if such wording exists, the claimant should be able to find it.

As a matter of fact, Article 90 of the UCMJ states that in war, \"assaulting or willfully disobeying a superior commissioned officer,\" gives the SUPERIOR OFFICER authority to execute a subordinate. Article 100 states, \"if a subordinate compels surrender,\" the SUPERIOR OFFICER again has authority to execute the subordinate.

It doesn\'t have anything that specifically states NCO\'s have authority against officers. All the other Articles concerning battlefield execution (85, 94, 99, 101, 102, 104, 106, 110, 113, 118, and 120), apply to all soldiers regardless of rank, but generally implies punishment will be handed from top down.

Provisional IS titles have been brought up to date. As always, it\\\'s a delicate balance between coming up with an allusion that isn\\\'t too obscure or a gag that isn\\\'t too obviously wacky. \\\"Sleep No More\\\" is a familiar quote from {{Macbeth}}, so IS would use another one from the play, for example. On the other hand \\\"Heaven Sent\\\"/\\\"Hell Bent\\\" probably _isn\\\'t_ a reference to [[ElvisCostello Elvis Costello\\\'s]] \\\"Pump It Up\\\", which leaves that two-parter freer for parody.
