#1 is questionable because was part of a volunteer unit that disbanded. #2 and 3 were AWOL. #4 figured he would go to the stockade, but the army decided to make an example of him. |

What about Benedict Arnold? |

Was channel surfing the other night and clicked onto "Public Enemies", a recent movie about John Dillinger. He was in the navy for a short stint before leaving for other banking adventures. |

Benedict wasn't a deserter. He was a traitor. Mark Twain didn't desert from the US Army so we don't care. |

Yes, Arnold was a traitor, but since he was a serving Continental officer when he went over, he was also a deserter. |
