One thing about the military in general.
First a soldier cannot resign from duties during a state emergency.
Disobeying an order during a state emergency is a court martial offense where trial will be swift and merciless usually ending up facing a firing squad especially in a military state like Amestris.
Signing up to the military is not the smartest thing in a country like Amestris but a person with ambitions has no other options but to join since there was no hope to make it to the top without doing so. No chance of a peaceful citizen up-rise either since the military is ruling the state.
Roy was simply stuck between a rock and a hard spot and merely trying to do his best in worst of time.
