As far as the troop situation upon returning. Basically I had it were even though MILGOV did have plans for many of the troops, once they got back on US soil - some after many years in the ETO - there was very little MILGOV could do (short of executing a bunch of them) to keep them in the service.
I understand the point about saying that most would not want a discharge because they would be on there own without food or supplies. However I had the driving force for the ones who left be that they needed to go and find out what had become of their loved ones and homes...many would return to MILGOV after finding out they had nothing left of their old lives...many died.
About half mustered out/deserted/went over the wire etc.
My player team made a deal with MILGOV, they basically told them they were 'heading out' but would agree to be 'in reserve' should MILGOV really need them.

I did things very similarly in my campaign.
