well, if he is somewhere where alchohol is forbidden( say the litter box, for instance),then yeah, a  Court martial is definitely legal.  he's probably being made an example of, at his age, and I also assume his rank as an NCO, he should have known better than to disobey a direct order.  Now he has to pay the piper.

drunk, marajuana affects your lungs. Alcohol just gives you a hangover.

Bad idea to drink yet.  Alcohol tends to thin the blood and it could cause blood clots that have occured in the pockets where your teeth were to open up and you could start bleeding.

If you are convicted of going AWOL/deserting and the punishment for that offence includes discharge from the service then yes I think the discharge would be dishonourable.\n\nHowever it is possible that the sentence would not include discharge. If this was the case then you would continue in the service, after serving whatever punishment was administered, and your subsequent discharge would not necessarily be dishonourable.

You become AWOL and they look for you. Then you face court marshal and dishonorable discharge.  All bad for your record.  It is better to work out the problems with your senior officers.  Worst case is you could serve time in a military jail - not a cool place to be.

If you would like a better understanding of such regulations and help in finding them visit you ACS (Army Community Services) in such situations it is normal for the army to send the soldier back from the field or a deployment. At least from my experiance. I would have sent one of my troops home for the lucky day.\n\nIf you are having a hard time with the chain of command you can always speak to the chaplain or Army Family Team Building. \n\nGood luck

Deployments are not a place for civilians to be hanging out.. they are doing a very dangerous job.  I am rather confused by what you mean.  during port calls on deployments there is usually not enough time to get there to visit, considering the location will not be disseminated until after they leave.  The only port call you know of semi aheadof time prior to them coming home is when they pull in somewhere to pick up Tigers.. and spouses are not allowed on Tiger cruises in any event..  heck, I am not even sure subs HAVE Tiger cruises.  \n\nIf anything, many spouses wimp out and run home to Mommy and Daddy when deployments happen.

Absolutely...if you are old enough to serve in a war, then why can you not go out for a beer??? It is completely insane to me. I served in the military for four years. I was over 21, but had many friends that were not. We were in Iraq for 6 months...Desert Storm, and they could not legally have a beer when they got back to the states??? I do not agree with under age drinking, but if you are serving our country, keeping us safe and free, then by all means, you deserve a drink.

depending on how long you have been gone, you are already in trouble... and the correct term is U.A. You are already flagged and they will wait for you to come to them... they will not come looking for you unless you make it obvious were you are, then they have to, but it is easier for them to wait on you to mess up and get arrested for desertion, then they will come get you and you will be eligible for the full penalty of the UCMJ, which includes imprisonment with only bread and water rations and death... your best bet is to turn yourself in and talk to them about your issues, tell them you don't want to go and will not go. They can not force you to go back to Iraq... honesty with them is the best best bet for you....\n\nET2 (SS)

Take a Mag flight (free or cheap military flight) to ireland.  I did that with my friends when we were in the Marines.

Psych discharge was once the easy way out, but they recently made a rule that even socio-paths are not immune to deployment.  A fun way is setting up a homosexual act that a third-party soldier catches you on tape.  This is a general discharge that is upgraded to honorable after one year.  "Food for Freedom" also no longer works, and is bad for your health.\n\nYou can also refuse to take your vast smorgasbord of innoculations they try to force into your arm.  They'll scare you with all kinds of legal stuff, but a quick trip to the JAG office will set you straight on what they really can do to you.

you have a feeling of euphoria, your lose your inhibitions, you can't react to things as quickly, and you may not see things clearly, depending on how much you drink. if you drink WAY too much, you will feel dizzy and naseous and you will barf.

alcohol causes that, so if you're drinking at night, stop and see what happens.

Not if you have a bar to re-enlistment. You fried your @ss as well as your brain.

Be proactive. Don't drink so much, or drink more water while you are drinking alcohol. Then the hang over won't be as bad.

100% correct always take your drink with you dont leave it on the bar if someone buys you a drink take it from the bar person \na couple of yrs ago my drink was spiked it could have been really bad but im thankful in a way that i  came round in a police cell i dont remember what happened for a period of 6hrs but apparently i stood infront of a bus and when the police arrived i hit one of them !!! it may sound funny but its horrible missing part of your life and doing things that you would never think of doing normally , it could also have gone the other way and left me with the man who spiked me ...
