Revealed: Bowe Bergdahl left letter telling comrades at Afghan base he was 'leaving to start new life and didn't want to fight for America' as Army announces he DOES face desertion charges

Sgt Bowe Bergdahl left a note for his comrades in which he said he did not want to fight for America any more and was leaving to start a new life Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff today said 'it's premature' to think there will be no charges against Bergdahl Will put Obama under more pressure after Susan Rice said he served with 'honor and distinction' and freed five Taliban commanders Former comrade who was there when Bergdahl disappeared five years ago broke a military gagging order to speak to MailOnline He said: 'As far as I’m concerned Bergdahl deserted his men and should face the firing squad' ‘Everyone looked at me like I was crazy but I was right, he had walked off’

My bad on the first. I should have known he was Army.

That being said, I intentionally left it lower case, as a true Marine would never desert his post.

Well sure, some white twenty something solider who was acting really strange according to those in his own unit, who decided to wander off a secured post in a hostile war zone where to play happy wanderer in Afghanistan was just a perfect normal thinking American, free of any mental issues.

Makes sense.

I noted you evaded the question. You describe the tagline below quite well.

BTW slick, no one here suggested he was not guilty of anything and or did nothing wrong.

Your spin is speeding up the rotation of the planet.

I think the problem is a lot of people believe because someone might be a cop, FBI agent or soldier, they can’t possibly have mental issues. BTW as a disclaimer for those are not capable of critical thought, this does not make them innocent of wrong doing.

One of the members of his unit (all of whom were forced to sign non-disclosure agreements) said Bergdahl was “at best a deserter, at worst a traitor.”

Or just brought up anti-American, or just naive...and dumb.

He was of sound mind, and he made his choice.

He might be, but then again, I understand he actually attempted to join the French Foreign Legion prior to the Army...

What rational mentally stable twenty something of sound mind would ever even consider that?
