The US is at war right now. Desertion in wartime CAN get the death penalty.
However, depending on the circumstances - how long he was gone, where he deserted from, etc - he could realistically be looking at anything from a fine and reduction in rank to six years in prison, reduction to private, and a dishonorable discharge.

Severe.He could be executed.,although this is very unlikely.
He will go to the United States Arny Disciplinary barracks at FtLeavenworth, Kansas. This is a prison, only it's reserved for the military.
He will serve his sentence there, then most likely be dishonorbly discharged..
He will be paying for this for the rest of his life. In other words , he is totally f#####!

Court martial, fines, imprisonment, demotion in rank plus all of the previous mentioned items. Also, Dishonorable discharge or Other than Honorable Discharge.
It will be up to the sort of Tribunal decision.

Don't know. I think you may find that in the Uniform Code of Military Justice. The "UCMJ" is the law book for the military. Try a search on line.

He receives an all price paid sabbatical from life, on the holiday hotspot of the midwest: the Disciplinary Barracks at feet. Leavenworth, Kansas. Your husband is mendacity, his CO did not in basic terms tell him to bypass living house. that would not take position.
