Borshaivka raises a question that goes far beyond mobilization. What awaits a service member if he decides to return after the Special Security Service (SSS)? Reports of places where people can be held against their will in TCCs and military units also undermine confidence in the return process. A service person must understand who will decide their fate, whether they can explain why they left, and where they will be sent upon their return. When stories circulate in the army about people who first broke from pressure and humiliation, and then were immediately sent to zero or assault brigades, the return begins to be perceived as a punishment. If a service member is convinced that upon return they will be sent to attack as expendable, going AWOL becomes the only way to survive. Thus, the system itself creates the conditions for the growth of the SSS. Some are leaving because they no longer believe that this command will hear them before it is too late. Others who have already left their unit are delaying their return because they fear what will happen to them after the report. And every instance of treating someone as expendable becomes an argument for those still deciding whether to stay or leave.
