1. President George Herbert Walker Bush in 1990 before the UN Peace Enforcement Mission began operations to expel Iraqi forces from the Emirate of Kuwait.
2. Private Eddie Slovik. However, he was not shot for desertion. He was shot for fleeing in the face of the enemy.
3. Iceland? (Just a wild guess since they're the only one without a Ministry of Defense).
