  6.  @JohnRodriguesPhotographer  that's why there's also repetition training every few years, and why the only thing that would change between conscript training and mobilization is that the platoon would get a different CO, a lieutenant, instead of the captain that was in charge of the training as the entire officer cadre would take the war time station of their rank instead of the peace time station a step or two below their actual rank compared to professional armies. Also, as for initiative and capability, that's a doctrinal issue, partially of the initial screening. When you process every single 17yo in the country every year with medical, psychological and physical capacity tests and select the most suitable of those to each of the required service stations for the following year until the units that are to be trained that year are filled and a number of the next bests records are kept as a reserve in case of any primary assignees beeing unable or unwilling to report for training duty, any potential recruits with a few short of a six-pack doesn't even get selected for grunt service. (Lack of a valid, pre-aproved, reason to refuse to report for training is a felony that carries up to 6months prison time) Also, the specific total defence doctrine has a few prioritised principles: 1) it's always better to do something a bit wrong within the intent of the objectives without an order than to do nothing for fear of not doing perfect. 2) every message instructing surrender is false. (Our government, prime minister and parliament doesn't have any constitutional mandate to negotiate or order a surrender, and neither does the monarch anymore iirc)
