what happens to a navy man who has been awol for 3 weeks?

Answer 1

if hes found he could get in trouble not severe though. i used to work in the brig at camp pendleton and escorted awol detainees.
it all depends on what he's done with himself since he went ua
up until the 4th week hes not awol yet. ask yourself these questions 1 how long has he been in service? if less than a year,cannot conform to military lifestyle. my advice is tell him to lay low stay away from any thing to do with trouble, because the way the military works now is that they use your social security number to find you mostly by a police stoppage. about employment employers do not have the clearance to check military records unless its a gov job,local city state or federal.he dosent even have to claim a veteran status.tell him to stay out of trouble and get a job fast,there is a discharge called a good of service discharge,it works like this, if he gets employment to care for family and has not been a slacker ,if found it is possible to get time served and a good of service discharge.if there are family problems that he just had to take care of he could get an admin separation. bottom line is the longer hes away the better it will be for him if they do find him.

Answer 2

Usually in cases of this type if caught the navy man will be court martialed, receive a bad conduct discharge, and possibly jail time. Anyway it is put his life will be ruined due to the discharge. You would not believe how many employers that are patriotic to the military!!

Answer 3

As long as he makes it back before 30 days he will get an article 15, 30 days pay, 30 days extra duty and may loose a rank. He might have to go to the brig for a little and if he has a security clearance he may loose it.

Answer 4

It depends on the situation. If he left his post during time of war, in a position where he was guarding someone or something, he could be tried for desertion. If he just 'forgot' to come back from liberty or leave, he's probably going to get a slap on the wrist and some non-judicial punishment...maybe lose a stripe and some pay.

Answer 5

If he doesn't soon turn himself in, he can be held in jail until someone from the Navy comes to pick him up. Then, it will be up to the Navy officials to decide if they want to give him a dishonorable discharge. More than likely, he would get a dishonorable discharge if he stays on the run. It would be better for him to turn his self in before any further trouble happens!

Answer 6

If he was AWOL to avoid going into battle, he gets to go to Federal Prison for quite a while.

Answer 7

that depends..

is he going to stay awol? well then it's up to him what he does with the rest of his life, he just better not speed, or ever get into trouble thats for sure

smart thing to do would be just to go back to work, and pay the penance for being stupid, most likely he will go to military prision for a time and then possibly, most likely get kicked out?! My hubby is AF so some rules might be different....

Truth be told it is actually faster to just do your four years and not get into trouble than to mess up and have to go to prision and finish up your four years! Just do it and get over it.

Let your friend know that it'll be easier now to go back then later and it wont be hanging over his head for the rest of his life.

Answer 8

usually the sp's come looking for him and when they find him they toss him in the brig then he's charged with AWOL and /or desertion. then he could be court marshaled, dishonorably discharged and sent to prison

Answer 9

He's not AWOL. It looks like that... but things will show different in the near future... you'll all see...

Answer 10

Captains Mast. Not as serious as court marshall, but still severe monitary penalties; rank reduction; restriction of some sort (possibly brig time).
