“The Army statement Sunday said Bergdahl is receiving counseling from “Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape” psychologists” to “continue to ensure he progresses to the point where he can return to duty.”

The Army said specifics of Bergdahl’s location would not be made public.”

Interesting. So desertion and collaborating with the enemy that resulted in the multiple deaths of US vets is now considered a mental illness.

Only a matter of time before he hits a bar/restaurant and is recognized by a vet(s)/Marines, and when that happens, I would not want to be him.

Three reasons Bergdahl was not a POW: Number 1, he was not captured; Number 2, he deserted; Number 3, he was not being held by the Taliban, not an army.

Especially in Texas.

We take our military service seriously.

Deserters are persona non grata here. To put it mildly.

I don’t think there is any way this guy is going to ever return to duty. They will figure some way to cashier him out without a court martial.
