From firing squad to-——meh. No big deal. Just cause a couple of troops were injured or lost looking for him.

This leniency sets a really bad precedent that may serve to excuse similar behavior by other would be traitors.

I cannot disagree. The ruling undermines military discipline. A firing squad would have been much closer to the correct sentence.
