That should dictate the appropriate punishment. Just read the she was Dropped From the Rolls (DFR) as a deserter so Id say court-martial and then whatever they decide along the lines of the men who have done the same. No different because she's a female with a husband and child at home.Response by SFC William Farrell made Feb 6 at 2016 11:12 PM2016-02-06T23:12:49-05:002016-02-06T23:12:49-05:00CPT Private RallyPoint Member1285557<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div><a class="dark-link bold-link" role="profile-hover" data-qtip-container="body" data-id="486039" data-source-page-controller="question_response_contents" href="/profiles/486039-36b-financial-management-technician-166th-av-bde-first-army-div-west">SSG(P) Private RallyPoint Member</a> Other than honorable discharge.Response by CPT Private RallyPoint Member made Feb 6 at 2016 11:22 PM2016-02-06T23:22:20-05:002016-02-06T23:22:20-05:00CPT Private RallyPoint Member1285592<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>She will be processed just like previous Trainees who have pulled similar stunts in TRADOC; this is nothing new except for the media hype. There's a slim chance based upon her personal circumstances that she could be a day one recycle. However, from a former Commander's perspective, I just see a discharge based on failure to adapt. I'd rather not take that chance of keeping her on the books for it to happen again.Response by CPT Private RallyPoint Member made Feb 6 at 2016 11:39 PM2016-02-06T23:39:13-05:002016-02-06T23:39:13-05:00SN Greg Wright1285770<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div><a class="dark-link bold-link" role="profile-hover" data-qtip-container="body" data-id="486039" data-source-page-controller="question_response_contents" href="/profiles/486039-36b-financial-management-technician-166th-av-bde-first-army-div-west">SSG(P) Private RallyPoint Member</a> The issue isn't that she has a vagina. The issue is that she doesn't have the intestinal fortitude to follow through with something she committed to. This also happens to owners of a penis. This is, in short, a non-story. She's a douchebag. Plenty of those in both genders. Pass her over, and keep looking for the next gem.Response by SN Greg Wright made Feb 7 at 2016 1:08 AM2016-02-07T01:08:54-05:002016-02-07T01:08:54-05:00Capt Seid Waddell1285837<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Same as a male combat engineer.Response by Capt Seid Waddell made Feb 7 at 2016 2:44 AM2016-02-07T02:44:20-05:002016-02-07T02:44:20-05:00PO2 Sam Tkach1285874<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I don't know all the circumstances, so I can't render an opinion.Response by PO2 Sam Tkach made Feb 7 at 2016 4:58 AM2016-02-07T04:58:27-05:002016-02-07T04:58:27-05:00SCPO Joshua I1285888<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Send her home like they do everybody else that pulls this stunt.Response by SCPO Joshua I made Feb 7 at 2016 6:12 AM2016-02-07T06:12:28-05:002016-02-07T06:12:28-05:00SGM Steve Wettstein1285997<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>They will probably just process her out with more than likely an OTH discharge.Response by SGM Steve Wettstein made Feb 7 at 2016 8:56 AM2016-02-07T08:56:04-05:002016-02-07T08:56:04-05:00Sgt Aaron Kennedy, MS1286005<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Investigation into the facts of the case leading to possible Art 15/Summary CM then likely administrative discharge.<br /><br />NO ONE wants this to be a media circus. Everyone wants this to just quietly go away. If she wants to stay in the Army, the Command will likely work with her (day 1 recycle) and do everything in their power to make her a "perfect soldier" from this day forward. If she doesn't, they will likely work with her, and get her out the door as quietly as possible, and make it "appear" as non-punitive as possible. We don't want anyone who doesn't want to be here either. They're a liability, and just a problem waiting to boil over in the future.Response by Sgt Aaron Kennedy, MS made Feb 7 at 2016 9:01 AM2016-02-07T09:01:56-05:002016-02-07T09:01:56-05:00MAJ Ken Landgren1286756<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>EO punishmentResponse by MAJ Ken Landgren made Feb 7 at 2016 3:06 PM2016-02-07T15:06:49-05:002016-02-07T15:06:49-05:00CPT Aaron Kletzing1287515<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Promoted early?

Article 15 at a minimum… then the trainee/soldier (I didn’t see the status of the person identified) has to be looked at closely to decide if the person can be recycled/salvaged, for lack of a better word. <br /><br />To me one of the best practices in the military is the ability of senior NCO’s and Officers to use discretion in cases like this for the good of the service “and” the person.
