The first is when Commander Karrde is taking control of the battalion of GDI troops around the Pentagon, and has to verbally browbeat their commanding officer into following his orders. Later, when Nod Commander Rawne ends up at the research facility in Brazil, the local Black Hand general (who outranks him) refuses to take Rawne's advice to evacuate, and when Rawne presses him he emphatically tells him to shut up and take command of the garrison instead of questioning his orders in front of the command staff.

* TomClancy uses a variation in several of his books. Military characters almost never need to be told twice when given an order. But several characters with military backgrounds but civilian jobs occasionally deal with career soldiers who outranked them in their previous life. When these high-ranking officers want these civilians to do something, the civilians have their own opinions about it until they are told that if they don't obey, they'll be recalled to active duty, where they'll '''have''' to listen. Compliance usually follows quickly.
** Most notably, a few years after John Clark left the Navy, he is contacted by an Admiral about a mission in Vietnam. There is a group of high-ranking [=POWs=] being held in an area that Clark visited previous as part of a previous operation, and the Admiral wants his know-how and expertise for planning a rescue attempt. When Clark demurs, obviously reluctant to go back after two previous tours, the Admiral offers him a choice: He can do the job as a civilian contractor with relative freedom, nice pay, and an expense account; or he can be recalled to active duty status with considerably ''less'' pay and placed under the iron thumb of military protocol. Either way, he's doing the job.
