So what does everyone propose we do? I think he needs to be held responsible for bailing. Parents lost sons because those sons were looking for him on the other hand I don think he realized the full scope of what he was doing he was only a kid when he left. Idk how many here have kids but I do so I can understand other parents and soldiers wanting him to face the music but because I have a kid I know they make mistakes and he's been a POW even if he did the wrong thing he still will have a lot to work through psychologically. I say take him to trial find him guilty. Give him a DD and say time served for being captured and let him go on with his life.
