So what would happen to me if I put DEPU in the PNR for my NYC-ATH-TLV-NYC trip in November?

Short of that, anyone have any interesting "I was deported from..." stories?
SSR: Special Service Report

I would not add DEPU to your reservation record. You would use this to indicate that someone is being returned home after being refused entry into the country. This would be someone like a young woman claiming that she is here for a holiday but the Immigration Office discovered that she will really going to be a nanny. This young woman will not be allowed entry and will be sent back on the first available non stop flight home, therefore not needing an escort to make sure she doesn't become a runner.
