An Army official reveals the tough charges the military has planned for POW, Bowe Bergdahl.
Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, who was released by the Taliban last year in exchange for five prisoners, is being charged with desertion, retired Lt. Col. Tony Schaffer told Bill OReilly on The OReilly Factor Monday.
Mr. Shaffer, who now works for the London Center for Policy Research, said two separate military sources have confirmed to him that Sgt. Bergdahls attorney has been given a charge sheet, listing out the articles of the uniform military code that have been violated.

Sounds about par for Hussein
Is the penalty for desertion firing squad or hanging?
It was never about freeing Bergdahl. Just a Ruse to set (5) muslim terrorists free from Gitmo.
Exactly! O. will pardon him. B..tards both.
There was no way he could not be charged with desertion. Personally, I don’t think he can (1) avoid and trial, and (2) avoid conviction.
The question then becomes the punishment. That’s where ‘discretion’ enters the picture. I’m betting on something like 2 or 3 years with time in captivity counting toward that total.
An Army official reveals the tough charges the military has planned for POW...
Desertion! How about treason?
We fight for what’s right because there’s more people in the United States than just Obama...
Actually, most of us don’t give a damn what Obama thinks about Bergdah or anything else for that matter.
Unless the Sultan reverses the judgment before it is made public.
For us. Not for the Sultan.
Just as a reminder...this was another incident where Susan Rice, presently in charge of all security for our country, went on TV to say this guy was a patriotic, self-sacrificing, serving soldier who deserves all our thanks...
When do we stand up, call these people LIARS and get rid of them?
Bueller, Bueller, Republicans??!?
Source also told retired Lt. Col. Tony Schaffer a while ago that the original investigation of Bergdahl at the time he went missing concluded he deserted. So Obama traded 5 terrorist for a deserter. The only justification for the trade was to get him back to face justice... (ya I am stretching!!!!)
Nothing. I don't know where all these rumors are coming from.
Jim needs to rename FreeRepublic “FreeRepubli-stadramus” because this is all stuff every single one of us here already knew MONTHS ago...
The problem is that they promoted him.
