A "retired" E-4? So modern-day journalists know absolutely NOTHING about the military?

[Norm Lenhart]

That was a rhetorical question I assume? ;)

Reporters don’t know shotguns from rifles, but are PROUD of their ignorance of “evil” subjects like guns or the military.

Full didn’t hold back on his apparent disdain for Bergdahl, striking at the former prisoner’s integrity.

I am sure the Obungler will order the IRS to audit him.

[Steely Tom]

Yeah, well. What does he know?

The brilliant minds back in Washington are much more aware of the facts of this situation.

checking to see what the Army has to say on the matter, i guess they doesn’t either... same thing, different guy

Only 20 years to make it to E-4. He must have been an outstanding soldier.

"A "retired" E-4? So modern-day journalists know absolutely NOTHING about the military?"

Off topic and my apologies.

When I was in the Army in the mid-70's, we had a guy in our company who was a hard stripe E-5 buck sergeant with 17 years time in service. He was of Iroquois heritage and went wild when he drank too much. Don't know if he got to retire but I made E-5 in 3 years and often wondered why he couldn't advance after all that time.

Just kidding. I knew.

Bowe was just on a sabbatical.
