Bush's Administration capitalized on this fact and Bush got his war, got re-elected because of the war ("terror threat"), and one branch of the government mislead another with FALSE intelligence (WMD's)
Bush is in the wrong. But Homeboy is also in the wrong because unfortunately he did Sign his life over to the Man whom he is rebeling against.
6 yearsPrison and being called a coward for the rest of his life , better than bein dead.

I'm glad all you tards saying it is ok for him disregard his duties aren't in the military because we would be more screwed up...
I'm willing to bet someone who has already gone there is going back in his place

Your are correct. For the Army (my branch) from 1stLt. it goes Captain, Major, Lt. Colonel, Colonel, 1 star. 2 star, 3 star and 4 star General, 5 star upon commision of the president, but there has not been one of those since before I was born.

This must have gone to West Point and still owes the Army some time for initial payback to the military for giving him an education. Otherwise, any officer not under entitlement could just resign from their duties. There is no contract for officers, just enlisted personnel.

So next time you enter a contract with someone where they are suppose to perform a service for you and they don't complete the task remember it's ok for them to do what they want because it's their choice.

The only people that brought up the war in this thread were the people that agreed with the soldier's actions. Everyone else stated how cowardly his acts were.
