Post-war trials
In 1946, Monti was court-martialed for stealing the plane and for desertion; he was sentenced to 15 years in prison. His sentence was later suspended and he was allowed to reenlist in the Army as a private on February 11, 1947. He was a sergeant when he was discharged on January 26, 1948.

I found this unbelievably stupid. The guy surrendered in his SS uniform, committed treason and in early 1947 he could reenlist with the US armed forces?
