Awol/Deserter

[Toofargone]

I went awol in 2006. Shortly after went to prison in 2007 in Texas prison. I was released in 2013. My family said I received paperwork while being locked up that I was discharged. I had 5k worth of debt to dfas. I have filed my tax returns and paid off the debt. I still can’t get a copy of dd214. I want to get this resolved. If it hasn’t been anyone have any info? A phone number or contact info? I was awol from ft Stewart

I’m worried that one day they will just show up and arrest me. For it

My family can’t seem to find any of the paperwork that said anything about any type of discharge. Will they discharge you with out you present?

Yes they will.

Certainly, people get discharged all the time without actually being "present." It happens in all sorts of conditions (even entirely honorable ones).
