I don't understand how there are any officers left in the military.
You forcibly conscript me and hand me a gun, the very first thing I am going to do is turn around and shoot you (or whatever delegate you have put in authority over me) with it.
Yes, you could die. And that's bad but your name is intact and if you survive you can go back to the before times. If you kill your own people, you ain't going home again.
Your life is effectively over either way. This is basically the situation Solzhenitsyn wrote about in the Gulag Archipelago.
"And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family?
" Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?...
"The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”
That's what the neonazi commissars are for, which are whole separate caste of troops. No one is giving you a gun before you're sent to the frontline and you're treated like a criminal, they expect you to try and shoot them so you're always under aim - you do a sudden move, you get shot immediately.
So the actual choice is guaranteed death here vs potential death at the frontlines.
If any are, this is equivalent to signing their death warrant.
They'll be given 2 weeks of training by "advocates of human rights", then put to through the meat grinder.

Whites are law abiding. Only a good thing when the ruling class is on your side. Becomes a massive detriment when they are not.
Yeah but then you're a criminal. Are you going to defect afterwards and say goodbye to your life forever?
I mean, getting thrown into the meat-grinder is saying goodbye to your life forever. Might as well be a wrench in the cogs on the way down.
