The lead defense attorney for Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl said he wants him to receive the Prisoner of War medal.
His civilian lawyer, Eugene Fidell, on Friday said his client should be recognized for the five years he spent in Taliban captivity after deserting his post in Afghanistan, according to an article by USA Today.
"We have long felt he was entitled to the POW medal," Fidell said, the newspaper reported.
It wasn't immediately clear whether Bergdahl's defense team plans to push for the award as part of the process to appeal his dishonorable discharge.

20 years ago this would have been treated as a sick joke.
It just shows how far this country has fallen under Clinton, Bush and Obama that the Marxists are deadly serious about this.

Would a .45 or a 9mm be more appropriate for pinning it on? Decisions, decisions....

#### him. His day of reckoning will come.
He and hie ilk’s days are numbered.
Primary conservative Rs should put his picture on campaign posters, and mention the great men who died looking for this piece of garbage.

exactly!!
How in the sam hill, can they say with a straight face, that he is somehow entitled to any benefits which would be given to a prisoner of war????? When the reason he was a “prisoner” in the first place is because he was a deserter?????

I find more anger for that scumbag attorney. We have long felt he deserves a POW medal - screw the hell you. Medals are earned; not given through legal fiat.

When this traitor got a Dishonorable Discharge, isn’t that an automatic forfeiture of all previous medals/honors as well as rank.
