Soldier who deserted

Ross

I believe the answer is:

awol

(Other definitions for awol that I've seen before include "Absent without permission, in short" , "On the lam" , "Truant (or just missing)" , "'Absent without permission, initially (4)'" , "Not present when supposed to be" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
