In the US Civil War, this exact scenario played out. All it took was first blood, and even family members on opposite sides fought each other.

US soldiers will definitely kill our own. We saw this during the 70's with National Guard units shooting Kent State students. We see it today with our police forces. If the opposition can be cast as the villain, soldiers will fight.
