* There's the mostly British idiom "Nail ones's colours to the mast," defined as "[[https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/nail_one%27s_colours_to_the_mast To clearly show one's support for a side or opinion in a dispute, often indicating an intention to defend that side to the end."]]

Nailing one's colors to the mast would mean that the officers in question would not surrender ''under any circumstances''.
