Michael Hastings wrote an investigative article on Bowe Bergdahl in 2012 and I think it is worth reading to get a better understanding of who he was as a person. Also just to say, I am not a regular reader of Rolling Stone, but I think the piece is one that every Freeper should read, even if you do not accept its conclusion. Hastings was one of the top journalists writing from Afghanistan before his death.
AMERICA’S LAST PRISONER

I have read everything available on Bergdahl and the only sources appearing “sympathetic” to him are leftwing sources, which obviously would include Rolling Stone. The agenda would be to cast the best possible light on the situation so as to best protect Obama. No one in theater is taking up for him and unlike the Obama WH I don’t think that’s to protect their failed leaders. From what I’ve seen, anyone closely tied to the military has zero sympathy for the deserter.
