Hello again,
Oh no, they were often brutally pressed into service and put straight into Prussian units, often at the southern front where they had to fight against Austrian and Russian Corps. Prussia had a constant lack of soldiers since at least 50% were mercenaries of foreign nationalities and they often deserted because of the extremely harsh discipline.

Several Swedish soldiers escaped by fleeing over to the Austrian side during battles, where they were welcomed as allies and often got help to get back to their own units.
