I’m just thinking about how various European militaries used to give dipshit aristocrats officer commissions back in the day, until they got curb-stomped by Napoleon or whoever and figured out it wasn’t such a great idea.

Not generally given, bought. You used to buy your commission in the military, and yes it went exactly as you’d think buying merit goes.
