snip—”As we all know, LTC Terry Lakin was an 18 year fully decorated officer who had the lofty career achievement of having served as the chief Flight Surgeon to General George Casey during the Iraq war.
When Terry decided that he had an obligation as an officer to question the legitimacy of his orders to report to Afghanistan, he was court martialed and sentenced to 6 months in prison at Ft. Leavenworth, a sentence which he served.”

Contrast and compare, shall we??????????
The LTC Lakin case is worthy of comparison. Lakin refused to obey his orders to deploy as a political stunt. Berghdahl was already deployed and deserted in the face of the enemy in what was at the very least a political stunt, but was more likely both desertion and treason.
They both deserve Court Martial. Lakin got his, Bergdahl will likely never see a court martial.
