If a soldier goes AWOL because they're "scared" of fighting or consistently straight up neglects to do their job, I'm sure "natural self preservation" will be a stunning and effective defense at the court martial regardless if they're ina combat role or not.

It's almost as if civilians (read: police) and soldiers are trained, equipped, and deployed to different environments, with different rules.

And yet, today's police departments are often as militarized as soldiers. Plenty of HN stories about the phenomenon over the past decade

Soldiers are not first responders.

Clearly that doesn't matter as GP made it clear that this is a human trait, not tied to any profession.
