For example: "Some of his platoon-mates have been all over television calling Bergdahl a deserter. They were not on the witness list. Gregory Leatherman, who served with Bergdahl and is no longer in the military, was brought in to testify that Bergdahl was mentally troubled."
A real show trial would have this guy dead in the ground before Pravda even announced his pending arrest.
With this administration, it’s Potemkin villages all the way down. Nothing done under Obama’s authority can be regarded as legitimate.
You can’t convict Obama’s Only American Muslim War Hero ,will if they did Obama would Pardon him anyway
Desertion of one’s post in time of war and in the face of the enemy is TREASON and should be prosecuted as such.
Bergdahl should have been shot.
5.56mm
I will be disappointed beyond belief at my army, if the desertion charge, at a minimum, is not made to stick. It is irrefutable.
My dad who fought in WWII is a hero to me. He said they would shoot deserters back then. That’s it!
What can be done about this - who do you call - how can they get our (the people’s) views on this? If he gets off this will be awful!!!
exactly !
Didn’t people die doing trying to save him? One report I read (on Free Republic) said nobody died.
He wants another crack at Bergdahl’s mama.
The Romans would have DECIMATED his legion.
The undocumented Moslem makes him a Prince.
What an appalling travesty! Will ANYONE have any faith in our Army if this miscarriage of justice rules the day??? Obama sure has found a myriad of ways to destroy this once great nation.
Dahl is a weak kneed wimp....happy I am NOT in the US Army any more.....what a coward. You are right BirdDog should have been shot....
Robert Redford's next movie is: "Bergdahl - An American Hero" Hollywood will disgrace themselves one more time on the alter of lies... it's how they can look at themselves in the mirror...hold those lies tight and keep pushing them... Ignore cracks in the wall. Robert Redford - you're a fool...
Democrats don't understand that they're going to have to pay the piper for this crap and it ain't gonna be pretty...
And you wonder why a so-called Mgr General would prostitute himself ... Under Obola’s Pentagon?
Looks like the only chance for justice for this deserter is Gen. Robert Abrams to have the stones to ignore the recommendation from this Article 32 and call for a general courts-martial.
I know nothing of Gen. Abrams other than he’s from an Army family.
Obama only has a year to go after him, if he does the right thing.
I’ve no doubt they can prove the desertion. The fantasy cooked up by Bergdahl’s defense attorney, that Bergdahl was actually leaving to report abuse in his unit, is a ridiculous claim that’s easily disputed by Bergdahl’s own comments and by the integrity of other unit members.
The desertion charge will stick. It should be a general court martial.
