The attorney defending Army deserter Bowe Bergdahl says that the officer who presided over his Article 32 hearing last month is going to recommend that he face a lower-level court martial, thus sparing him a long prison sentence.

An Army officer is recommending that Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl face a lower-level court martial and be spared the possibility of jail time for leaving his post in Afghanistan, his lawyer said Saturday.

Reinstate him with back pay, send him to the front, and look the other way when some patriot frags him...

I know a veteran of the Gulf War who thought Obama was a god, even though the vet is an atheist. I wonder what he thinks about Bergdahl getting off scot free. I’ll never know because I don’t speak to him.

“Attorney: Army officer recommends no jail time for Bowe Bergdahl”

this is because obama stood between bergdahl’s Muslim parents in the rose garden and called Bowe a hero, and traded five top Al Queda generals residing in Guantanamo for Bowe.

i’m surprised Bergdahl wasn’t awarded a medal for deserting.

What Bergdahl deserved was to stay in captivity. Why Obama made that historically bad deal sickens me.
