The U.S. military officer who headed a hearing in the case of accused deserter Army Sergeant Bowe Bergdahl recommended that the man held captive by the Taliban in Afghanistan should not be sent to a military prison, Bergdahls lawyers said.
In a memorandum issued on Friday, Lieutenant Colonel Mark Visger, the presiding officer at the so-called Article 32 hearing last month in San Antonio, recommended non-judicial punishment for Bergdahl, the lawyers said.

The new administration is going to spend its first year or so reversing Obama’s actions.
All we have to do is survive the next year and few months of this loser.
It’s reached the point where I’m telling friends and relatives, if you voted for him the first time, shame on him for gulling you. Twice? Shame on you.

Can Obama the Bastard be charged with treason once he leaves office? If so, that would be my recommendation.

... recommends no jail for Bergdahl
This is setting precedent for all the queers and trannies who will violate the UCMJ in a thousand ways, yet will never be held responsible.

Just in case anyone had any doubt about the outcome of this debacle you can now rest assured that the Obamby fix is now officially in. As if any of us had any doubts about it. Lordy, they're sooo predictable.

He will have to constantly keep looking over his shoulder his whole miserable, despicable life.No, we forget too soon.
Google Robert Garwood.
The guy has been in Veterans Day Parades.
There are others...many others, particularly from the VN war.
Bergdahl will be a hero to some, sooner or later.
If I had the chance I'd whip his ass, period...but that's just me.

No, we forget too soon. Google Robert Garwood.
The only slack I'll give him is that he was captured by the VC only a week or so before he was to rotate. He spent years as a POW.
Bergdahl, on the other hand, left his post voluntarily to become one with the enemy.

Bergdahl is as likely to see the inside of a prison as Hillary Clinton is. IOW, it’s not going to happen.

“Wonder how much the Obama admin are pressuring the Army to go easy on him?”
I’ve never doubted that from the start. Ostensibly, the military justice system is intended to be independent of command influence. It isn’t.
