Slaves had *no* more opportunity to exercise their "political loyalty" by 'simply walking away from camp or while on the march' than they did while on the plantation, factory or farm.

That is disproven by the fact that some servants did go to enemy lines.
What I pointed out previously was that many had that opportunity and did not.
A servant wouldn't have the opportunity to 'escape' while on the march into Pennsylvania? Maryland? or while foraging for food?
