US Army Denies Desertion Charge For Bergdahl
Sky News ^ | 1-27-2015

Posted on 01/27/2015 8:49:03 AM PST by Citizen Zed

NBC cited defence officials and said the charges could come against the soldier within a week.

But Lt Col Alayne Conway, spokeswoman for Army public affairs, said no decision had been made yet in the Bergdahl case.

She said: "We are aware of the inaccurate media reporting. To be clear there have been no actions or decisions on the Sgt Bergdahl investigation. 

"The investigation is still with General Mark Milley, commanding general of Forces Command, who is reviewing now the Army's facts and findings to determine, impartially, any appropriate next steps and possible actions - which ranges from no further action to convening a court martial.

"We cannot discuss or disclose the findings of the investigation while disciplinary decisions are pending before commanders."

Why not? It's not that they "can't" discuss it, they just "won't" discuss it. That report must really nail him.

“.........reviewing now the Army’s facts and findings to determine, impartially,.....”

I thought odumbo already made the call and that he was NOT a deserter? So which is it? My bet the Army brass will side with odumbo if they know what’s good for their careers.

There are two possibilities:

1. The details of the report are toxic to the regime, and this is damage control (very possible);

2. The talking head “defence officials” were talking out their asses about things they don’t know about (a winner every time).

As our inept CNC, Zer0 gets the final call. And, he wants to not be caught in the dumb@$$ trap he is backing into.

If the report had cleared Bergdahl this administration would have had it published in the NYT five minutes after receiving it from the military.

Ya think??

I expect there will be nothing until spring...when Berghdahl's momma can be flown to DC to see Obama present their rotten, traitorous kid with some new kind of medal...the first of its' kind. That'll tick off the guys in the traitors unit.

Uh...er...well, um....what we meant to say is that Sargent Bergdahl will be charged for dessert, yeah that’s the ticket...he had extra ice cream after dinner, so we’re going make him pay for it.

Not per the rules in place, anyway.

Final word in courts martial is the Command Authority.
