That's it?

Wrist slap:

A U.S. Marine who vanished in Iraq in 2004 has been sentenced to two years in prison for leaving his post and then fleeing to Lebanon after a brief return to the U.S.

As part of the sentence handed down Monday, Cpl. Wassef Hassoun will have a reduction in rank, loss of pay and a dishonorable discharge.


He deserted his unit in a warzone, stole a military vehicle and lost his weapon -- so he gets two years in jail and a DD? Really?

Not many years agone, we shot war time deserters. I guess we've pussified that along with everything else about American culture.
