By enlisting in the military, you realise and acknowledge that you surrender certain rights, due to the nature of your job.
• You are therefore in a position of unlimited liability, as you may be subjected to situations which result in grave injury or even death.
• It is the Unlimited Liability Contract which sets those in the military apart from civilians.
• If you are no longer prepared to do this, it is not simply a matter of changing your mind – you have made an agreement which can only be changed under certain circumstances.
