It is a common misconception that if one is absent from military duty for more than 30 days then the charge changes from "AWOL" - absent without leave - to "desertion". In fact, the overriding factor in the placement of these definitions is the intent on the part of the would be deserter. If it can be proven that a person intended to avoid combat in time of war, which incidentally carries a maximum punishment of death; or they did not intend to return to their post, they will be charged with desertion.
