For some reason it seems to me that you do not even imagine that there is not only a landing in the army (which will cover your ass, if anything).
As the practice of the last major "if anything", the end of which we will soon celebrate, has shown, there will be no landing or any other kind of troops covering no one's ass. Just because the personnel army will be dismantled almost entirely in the first few months due to idiotism and command errors. And defending the country will be yesterday's civilians, sometimes going out to fight directly from the factory where they just made their weapons. I would be very happy to be wrong, but there are too many similarities in our country that were then and now.
