Doesn't Russia has the draft still in place? If so, that would make any of the enlisted men 'simple people'. |
As long as a person is being drafted and takes an oath
he ceased to be 'a simple person'.
He is a solder now, a GI - governmental issue.
Are you a governmental issue now? You're just a citizen.
Military units of simple people are called partizans, paramalitaries, vigilantes but not army units.
If a citizen betrays his country he faces criminal prosecution and a jail-term.
If the same done by a solder (a governmental issue) that solder faces a court-martial and then a firing-squad. |
I did my duty (Light Infantry and Combat Engineers) and was discharged over 10 years ago.
What service did you do for your country?
