They were voluntary subjects, and paid for their services.
If the pay was not commensurate with the hazard level, that is something
different from calling them volunteers.

The railway workers were paid, it may not have been good pay, there may
have been massive discrimination, but they were not volunteers.
If they get a bonus for handling nitro, it would be danger pay. It was not
commensurate with the hazard of handling the nitro, but it was still
danger pay for dangerous work.


What you are comparing are two totally incomparable things, especially
since the students didn't see some guy from the work camp die in the
tunnel the day before.
