Six soldiers died in the frantic search for Sgt. Bowe Bergdhal immediately after his mysterious disappearance five years ago, fueling the increasing backlash over the POW’s recovery.
Former platoon mates of the now-recovered serviceman accused Bergdhal of deserting his post and blamed him for the unnecessary deaths of comrades.
“I was pissed off then and I am even more so now with everything going on,” former Sgt. Matt Vierkant, a member of Bergdahl’s platoon, told CNN. “Bowe Bergdahl deserted during a time of war and his fellow Americans lost their lives searching for him.”

The six men reportedly killed while searching for Bergdahl were identified as Staff Sgt. Clayton Bowen and Pfc. Morris Walker on Aug. 18, 2009; Staff Sgt. Kurt Curtiss on Aug. 26; 2nd Lt. Darryn Andrews and Pfc. Matthew Michael Martinek on Sept. 4; and Staff Sgt. Michael Murphrey on Sept. 5.

These soldiers who died are the REAL heroes
Any idea how many deaths are linked to the activities of the 5 men released ?
We know whose side the commander in chief is on.
“The six men REPORTEDLY killed while searching” for this scum. They weren’t REPORTEDLY KILLED! They WERE KILLED!
How many soldiers died trying to capture the five terrorists?
Is there any truth to the vicious, Vicious rumor that Obama arranged for the release of Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl to replace General Shinseki as head of the VA?
The timing is very suspicious - - - - .
Six soldiers from Bergdahl’s platoon were killed looking for him. Other soldiers in other platoons were also KIA in the search for him.
The deserter/defector Bowe Bergdhal certainly didn’t fall far from the Leftist Bob Bergdahl tree.
Baghdad Bob Bergdahl
While he was helping the taliban make IEDs, bgill jr.’s young friend was killed in the same province by an IED. Makes me wonder.
No. Prior to the 5 terrorists landing at Guantanamo, how many people were they involved in killing ?
Just curious if anybody has a round figure on that.
