Jail time. And I would add for the brilliant person who said "going to Canada" that we have, among other things, a universal health care system which millions of americans would indeed die for.

No castration. But since we are a war, anything up to and including hanging. The last deserter to be hanged was in World War 2, his name was Pvt. Eddie Slovak.
