Desertion from the military can result in serious consequences, including jail time. Soldiers who desert may face charges of desertion, which is a criminal offense under military law. If convicted, they could be sentenced to imprisonment, fines, and a dishonorable discharge from the military. Desertion is considered a serious offense because it undermines military discipline and can put the lives of fellow service members at risk.
