“A U.S. Navy spokesman, Lt. Justin Cole, said Woodson joined the service in February 1988 and served aboard the USS Orion, a submarine tender, before deserting in April 1989. It would be eight years before he was returned to Navy custody, Cole said. A month later, in August 1997, Woodson was discharged.”
Another source said he did have a red and white middle eastern head scarf in the hotel room.
this guy was AWOL for eight years and then after only one month IC he was discharged? Is this normal?
