Desertion by a soldier in war is almost Always a Firing Squad Punishment, in other words, they are shot by their fellow soldiers.
2nd answer:
In the beginning of the civil war, at least, soldiers, including officers up to the rank of General were leaving the Federal Army in droves -- everyone seemed to understand that the soldiers from the South had to leave, otherwise face fighting against their own friends and families. This wan't always true, but was certainly common.
The Confederate forces, on the other hand, were very motivated to fight. They had superior leadership on the battlefield, and very few even wanted to leave.

Why might peace symbol around soldier's neck be considered contradictory?
Soldiers are people who fight, and sometimes kill, which is an exact opposite to peace, which is serenity and non violence. The two opposites contradict each other, because you can only have one or the other, not both. The meaning of wearing a peace symbol, as a soldier, especially in Vietnam, is that the soldier wants peace, and is trying to fight to get it, which could be seen as contradictory as well. If there was no war to get peace to begin with, there would be peace.
