Bad bad idea. Glad he is home, but bad bad idea. Now all our soldiers have a price on their heads, so the he enemy knows if you want your leaders back grab the nearest private and hold them for ransom,
As to whether he is a deserter or not. I have no information on that.

And yet he ignores Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi who is being held hostage in a Tijuana prison on weapons charges. .....just sayinCHLLady wrote:I'm trying to reserve my opinion, but more and more people are coming forward to tell what happened when he left.
Our captives were never treated as well as this guy. It just seems very suspicious to me.
He needs to be told that his comrades were killed while looking for him.
I'm suspicious of his father too. Strange strange things afoot. Despite this being the perfect opportunity for Mr. O to close it all down. What made me throw up in my mouth was when the prez. said something to the effect that we don't leave Americans behind, while speaking at the rose garden. Bad speech writer, bad!!

Re: U.S. Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl freed in Afghanistan
Phew, I'm just glad I'm not the only one who had these same thoughts. I admit I didn't follow this very close until I heard the father say he felt he was a hero. Then, the next words from the commentator was that he "wondered off, unarmed". That got the old spidey senses going. I fear there is more to come and we're not going to like what we learn.

Thanks to Prez's stunt with Bergdhal, nobody is saying anything about anything else...VA debacle....Benghazi hearings...etc.

Re: U.S. Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl freed in Afghanistan
Interesting twitter from a fellow team member who was there.
When he discovered that Bergdahl was missing, he woke the team leader up by saying, "He's gone", the team leader knew who he was referring to.

“Why would someone pack all of there [sic] belongings and send them home in the middle of a 12 month deployment? Hmmmm”
On the 2nd night B asked our team leader what would happen of his sensitive equipment went missing
On the 3rd night B asked a fellow platoon mate "if your M9 (9mm Pistol) went missing would you get in trouble?"
“So we now have Pre-Meditated Desertion at this point, yes?”

Story on a real hero who died looking for him.
No doubt in my mind, he will be a martyr if prosecuted. If not, he will be a darling left hero, and run for political office .
Even my wife who loves Michelle, thinks trading for him was a very bad idea. We have a young female Officer friend in Afghanistan right now and she is now very worried for her safety.

Re: U.S. Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl freed in Afghanistan
Let me see if I understand this. We trade 5 high value terrorists for 1 marine who deserted his post and apparently changed sides? I could see trading low value prisoners for him in order to make an example out of him but this smells too much like political efforts to help Ds win against Rs because a "D" brought our boy back. I would in fact have preferred a soldier a little closer to home was brought back instead.
How do you explain a dog named Sauer without first telling the story of a Puppy named Sig?

but mr.i walked away with a compass and bottle of water is a deserter, many soldiers died looking for him.
I thought he may be a cia plant.......but after digging through the last five years of reports.... he is a deserter.
but as most of you know the army has a huge problem on its hands since the first gulf war....lots and lots of converts to islam...bet you didnt know that little bitty tid bit, actually it was going on but much less prevalent , after gulf one it took off
