IMHO it would be automatically.
If you leave alliance - war flag must unflag.

Then leaders will have to control war flags.
Which is not good, 'cause I can’t see war flags of alliance’s members.
Though I’d be better, comparing to what we have now.
Necromancing this thread as an alliance mate just had the same issue…
After matchmaking, he went to merc. Only after war, when he couldn’t claim the war chest did the penny drop, something was definitely wrong.
Submitted Support ticket…
his participation had been reset to zero 
. So no war chest for him. This needs to be fixed!
Players should NOT be included in multiple wars. Must check if there’s a thread to vote on 
.
Nope… So started one
Chances are the opposing team will have issues with a power player’s defense if matched when mercing.
Best thing, take out the checkmark for war participation before you leave the alliance.
You won’t find yourself on another field, and if you come back just activate it again (or you won’t participate in the next matchmaking).
Would be better if there was something automated, but this is at least fool proof and guarantee the player who mercs that they won’t loose the war chest participation and the other alliance that someone doesn’t destroy their war.

Well removing the flag might work after the damage is done. Should this be happening in the first place? How does it help anyone being in two wars at the same time?
They are finally looking into it
