I mean, sure, what are they doing with that disdain?
What they can, i think you dont consider defying orders means court Marshal and prison at worst and at best, dishonorable discharge. Many people who are in the military are there for retirement and benefits. You get dishonorably discharged you loose it all.
You can fight orders legally, via the GI bill but the average joe doesn't have that kinda money or a backup plan if shit hits the fan.
Yes, so what are they doing? Nazi soldiers had a lot more to lose than retirement benefits.
