LatimeR, Judge
(concurring in part and dissenting in part):
I concur in that part of the opinion which holds that an intent to desert may *749be inferred from an unexplained absence of more than two years, coupled with apprehension. See my dissent in United States v Burgess, 8 USCMA 163, 23 CMR 387. I dissent from the portion which reverses this case on the rationale of United States v Soccio, 8 USCMA 477, 24 CMR 287.
I would affirm the decision of the board of review.
