That's very true but it applies to troops in all countries. They obey and are loyal because they have been brainwashed into that mental state. That's where religion comes in. The average troop has absolutely no reason to go charging off to war other than his "God" (national leader, family, friends, self-delusion, etc.) tells him to do so. People hate draft dodgers because they don't buy into that BS.
