It couldn't be a legal requirement because written orders to commit warcrimes
(if Buckingham ammunition is in fact illegal) do not excuse their actual
commission. The SS had written orders establishing concentration camps and
laying out some of the procedures to follow. Oddly enough, a lot of them still
got hung for running themm.
