Looks like the only chance for justice for this deserter is Gen. Robert Abrams to have the stones to ignore the recommendation from this Article 32 and call for a general courts-martial.
I know nothing of Gen. Abrams other than he’s from an Army family.
Obama only has a year to go after him, if he does the right thing.
I’ve no doubt they can prove the desertion. The fantasy cooked up by Bergdahl’s defense attorney, that Bergdahl was actually leaving to report abuse in his unit, is a ridiculous claim that’s easily disputed by Bergdahl’s own comments and by the integrity of other unit members.
The desertion charge will stick. It should be a general court martial.
