Canada court: AWOL U.S. soldiers not refugees

Now i am no fan of this war but its an all volenteer army and you knew there was the possibility of going to some foreign country to fight when you signed up. They did not train you to use a rifle for the fun of it.

AWOL is not the same as desertion..........

There are always those who sign up to get the Governmant to pay for college betting they wont have to go......you could pick these entitlement ones out back in basic.....it's a slap in the face to all that have served! Off with their heads or 20 years......:idea:

levenworth aint no joke man.. nothing like breaking rocks into smaller rocks all day long for 20 to make you regret your choices in life.

AWOL is just absent, unauthorized...........Desertion under fire, is a firing squad........... Desertion, missing a deployment may be rationalized, but it is still desertion based on "what if everyone did it"................MP
Back in the 60s, "What if they gave a war and nobody came" was a popular slogan......
