This is a bit old to bother with.

Give him his dishonorable and let him go about his business. He's had 40 years to worry about getting caught. That's bad enough.

I am not apologizing for him, just recognizing that there is no point in making a big deal about this long-ago event now.

I say cashier him under a dishonorable and be done with him.

In order for the deserter to receive a Dishonorable Discharge he must have a General Courts-Martial. I doubt if the Marines have the time or inclination to conduct a General Courts-Martial.

Just as a question...do you feel the same way about all the old NAZI's? Some of these guys are in their late '80's and 90's, but they are still hounded and prosecuted to this day...there is no repreive for these old guys?

Meanwhile, 50,000 illegal mexicans slipped across the border as they were slapping the cuffs on this guy.
