Well once again I think you misunderstand what the authority of an NCO is and you should familiarize yourself with title 10 U.S Code, 809 - Article 9 imposition of restraint. In particular (with regards to your statement) paragraph c. Because quite frankly the power of restraint/arrest lies solely with the officer Corps. Your attempt to arrest or restrain your commanding officer (or any officer) in any situation, war time or other, would only result in your own arrest by that officer (who actually has the authority to do so).
Now that being said, I fully agree that if given an unconstitutional order (whether actually unconstitutional, or in your interpretation) you should refuse to carry out that order. If you have the moral courage to do so and face any consequences for that action.
