The above has a pic of a post by “Dan Witmer” which relates the story of bergdahls actions.
Very helpful article.
The more I read the more it seems to me like Bowe had a mental break. I am not saying he did. I don’t know that he did. That’s just what I am leaning towards.
The way his parents were talking at the news thing was like parents trying to talk to a fragile person, as well.
I am not defending desertion if that is what happened. I am sick over the loss of the six who went to look for him.
I am just not certain Bowe is a traitor, and I am even less certain that his family are in some way Taliban supporters. I am at a loss to explain the tweet by his dad but it is inconsistent with his basically entire lifetime so I am baffled on that.
I mean are we all agreed that Bowe did not want to stay with them? He reportedly tried to escape. He asked “SF?” in the helicopter rather than tried to escape his rescuers. When told they had been looking for him the whole time, he broke down and cried, presumably for gratitude. Not the behavior of a jihadi, is it?
