I think the phrase "DD and ten" comes to mind.

I don’t see the problem. In Obama’s morally inverted world, a deserter is most deserving of an honorable discharge. In fact, desertion is so great a service to America in Obama’s fundamentally transformed definition, Bergdahl should get the Congressional Medal of Honor!

Well the NY Times is an enemy of the United states, has been since the Bay of pigs invasion when they warned Castro of the attack. Why that rag is still in biz is beyond me. There’s freedom of the press then there is treason. The NY Times is run by traitors and enemies of the United states.

As a comment on Twitchy notes: "(c) Any person found guilty of desertion or attempt to desert shall be punished, if the offense is committed in time of war, by death or such other punishment as a court-martial may direct, but if the desertion or attempt to desert occurs at any other time, by such punishment, other than death, as a court-martial may direct."

Death seems appropriate.

Someone who couldn’t tell an officer from an enlisted man and probably doesn’t even know the difference.

I don’t get these kind of threads, is there a link to the NYTs article, or this supposed to be about people tweeting stuff?

The idiots at the NYT are truly stupid in that they can’t even comprehend the English language. The Army statement this afternoon was clear and consise. If convicted of either of the two counts he would receive a DIShonerable discharge, forfeit ALL pay and benefits and spend time in prison (first offense - five years; second offense - life).

I know liberals are brain dead but come on.

Bias aside, aren't journalists supposed to do some research and consultation for their stories?

No, NYT, soldiers convicted of desertion do not get honorable discharges.

I’ll probably get a visit from the FBI for saying this, so I won’t. But - to put it mildly - the NYT has been an enemy of America for a long time.

How stupid can you get? A soldier deserts for 5 years and they wonder if he’ll get an honorable discharge after conviction? He’ll be lucky to be thrown out with a DD, reduction in rank to E-1 and no jail time.

Why don’t you expect “stupidity” and leftist propaganda from the New York Times? They’ve been doing it since the Walter Duranty scandal of the 1930’s.

Remember, they had Hanoi protector columnist Anthony Lewis always undercutting us on Vietnam, they published KGB agent Wilfred Burchett’s Soviet propaganda, the same for Hanoi atrocity denier D. Gareth Gary Porter’s mentally ill writings, and the lies of Comrade Bella Abzug.

Leftist insanity is the “norm” at the Red Lady, not an aberration.

If Bergdahl were to declare himself a woman he would probably get a medal as well.
