Desersi
Dalam istilah militer, desersi adalah pengingkaran tugas atau jabatan tanpa permisi (pergi, bebas atau meninggalkan) dan dilakukan dengan tanpa tujuan kembali. Hal ini berseberangan dengan absensi tak terotoritasi (bahasa Inggris: unauthorized absence, UA) atau absensi tanpa meninggalkan (bahasa Inggris: absence without leave, AS AWOL; Persemakmuran: AWL) yang merujuk kepada absensi temporer.
