I'll wager that those who return will face a very tough time of it in their units. To superiors ans more than likely every Sergeant Major Sixta types, they will be seen as people who got away with disobeying orders.

I've Seldon Had Unpleasant Events Happen In My Life,
But As Far Back As I Can Calculate, It's Nothing But Pure LUCK.
It's Not That I've Achieved All That Much, But It's Just In Right Places
When Good Sh*t Just Happened...

I'm Always Surprised When I Stop And Think About It,
At Just How OLD I Really Am... And Few Of My Family Thought I'd Never Live To Be 21,
And Here The Ole Buzzard Is At 80. ... And As A Black Friend Of Mine, Lee White Stated, Whom I've Known Since About The 5th Grade, Put It: "Rick, You've Had MORE Fun Than ANY White Boy Should Have Been Allowed," And I Can NOT Disagree With That. It's Been Mostly, As I've Stated; "Nothing More Than Just Sheer Luck"; And It's Happened Since My Early Teens, With Little To No Explanations. ~ I've Met Movie Stars, ~ I Spent (Unknowingly) About 30-45 Minutes, Just Talking To And Joking Around With The President Of Costa Rica. ~ In Newport Beach CA, I Met Doris Day ~ ~ Richard R. "Dickie" Smothers Wound Up Being An Insurance Client Of Mine When He Lived In Woodland Hills, CA ~ Met Parelli Jones At A Race Track In CA, ~ Met The Brother Of Broadrick Crawford In Big Bear, And A Multitude Of Other ACCIDENTAL Events...Not A Plan In Site-ZERO ~ Proving Over & Over "Sh*t Just Happens".

Right or wrong, at least those it affects will have the opportunity to give it a try.

A1C Medrick "Rick" DeVaney After I was out the Draft Board taunted me twice with a notice to report for a physical. Each time I went in eager to negotiate what my initial rank would be. So one of them has my paperwork and after a couple minutes of silence he says 'Oh, you still have a prosthesis, sorry.' This was after the physical of course. So my guess is many of those soldiers will jump at the chance.

You're Probably Absolutely Correct.....
"OH You STILL Have a Prosthesis"?

A1C Medrick "Rick" DeVaney The really cool thing is there is a couple here where the husband was blinded from an IED in Afghanistan and his wife fought her heart out to get him reinstated. And she was successful. I'm pretty sure most of the regulations have changed since my day thanks to people like her.
