Specialist is fearful of his Drill Sergeant, who had previously held a knife to the Specialist&#8217;s throat threatening to kill him. He retains GCW Law to represent him. Mr. Gapasin contacts his client&#8217;s Company Commander, informing him that his client would return to Fort Leonard Wood. Gapasin hints, however, that there would be consequences of the Company Commander&#8217;s Drill Sergeant and the maltreatment and death threats Gapasin&#8217;s client had to endure. Mr. Gapasin and the client hoped that the unit would simply discharge his client without be placed in confinement or being charged in a court-martial. All the client wanted was to be discharged with no less than a General. Client did not want to continue with his career in the U.S. Army.&nbsp;<b>RESULT: After over 30 days of being AWOL, Client is successfully discharged from the U.S. Army.
