The military is a bit different - when you enlist, you're basically giving your body to the U.S. government for a period of time. It's one of the only situations where you can be legally required to throw your body into harm's way. Whether that's running into a room where there are guys with guns drawn, or taking an experimental vaccine, the laws on this are long-settled.
Of course, the people who were forced to do all these unfortunate things should have godtier medical care for life, and the V.A.'s performance has been an absolute disgrace.
