When it hits 30 days, it's "desertion," and they DO get court-martialed for that. You're almost right. When a unit is under orders to deploy the thirty day requirement is no longer required. You are a deserter the day after you were ordered to report and failed to do so.

Correct. But this guy met the 30-day standard, too.
