4. Saigon68, wouldn't it have become

desertion some time ago?

Can't they execute those that desert in time of war?

I'm just remembering the old film "The Execution of Private Slovik". He wasn't even actually a deserter; he went around the camps cooking. Just could not kill. And he was ultimately punished for being a pacifist. Tough movie to watch, imo.

Thanks for any info!
