Re: Involuntary Mil Svc.: Foreign General
Not that I know of; unless the service would be
violative of the articles of war, or the duties
imposed by the rules following the German war crime tribunals at the end of WWII; sort of like they asked you to serve under Idi Amin, or Noriega.....but you decline to do so at your peril and would probably face a Court-Martial.
