FORT BRAGG, N.C. (AP) -- Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, who walked off his combat outpost in Afghanistan and spent five years in captivity, will be court-martialed under a new commander-in-chief.
A military judge decided Tuesday to delay Bergdahl's trial from August until February to provide time for resolving disputes over the defense team's access to classified documents.

I don’t know if the Presidential Pardon applies to courts martial unless as a final measure of appeal of an already convicted serviceman.

You are correct sir. The Obungler will make sure he walks. This is not difficult to figure out. It will never get to Trump. The fix was in from day one. The pubbie side of the iniparty will pontificate for a few days, then it is business as usual. How I despise politicians.

stonewalling the truth....and Obama will be gone...
Remember, this is really all about the "bad deal" aka "the trade"......and Hillary had to be complicit.

The CIC has the last word in Military trials.
Andre's attorneys were begging Washington for a reprieve. No dice.
Obammy will give him some sort of pardon or immunity before he leaves and probably make him bathroom compliance czar or something. Guaranteed.

Obama pardons bergdahl
How can Buckwheat pardon bergdahl when he hasn’t been convicted of a crime, only charged? (The court martial is the trial).

Ford pardoned Richard Nixon, who had not yet been convicted of anything. A pre-emptive pardon.

I'd rather he be tied stomach forward to a 155 cannon barrel in a full Cannon Battery; one gun at a time firing with in a slow 10 count between each gun firing. He being the tied to the last one to fire.

Regardless of the defense’s “evidence”, Bergdahl is a Traitor!

A few more postponements and Bergdahl will have his full twenty in and will probably draw full retirement.

Point well taken. Still Professor Barry is a constitutional lawyer you know... So he is above any paltry legal constraints.

I may be wrong, but I don’t think the UCMJ has a “pre-emptive pardon” provision.
