'Bowe Bergdahl deserted and these Americans lost their lives searching for him': The bitter backlash from soldiers who served with Taliban POW as the SIX men who were killed looking for him are revealed The Facebook group 'Bowe Bergdahl is NOT hero!' has 5,400 members Men who served in his unit in Afghanistan are now emerging to say they believe Bergdahl deserted before he was captured Bergdahl e-mailed his parents saying he 'was ashamed to be an American' Military seems to acknowledge Bergdahl, 28, could have committed some kind of violation However, officials say he likely won't be punished: 'five years is enough' Former squad leader said Bergdahl always talked about seeing what was on the other side of the mountains
WASHINGTON — Sometime after midnight on June 30, 2009, Pfc. (it's "PFC", morons) Bowe Bergdahl left behind a note in his tent saying he had become disillusioned with the Army, did not support the American mission in Afghanistan and was leaving to start a new life. He slipped off the remote military outpost in Paktika Province on the border with Pakistan and took with him a soft backpack, water, knives, a notebook and writing materials, but left behind his body armor and weapons — startling, given the hostile environment around his outpost.
That account, provided by a former senior military officer briefed on the investigation into the private’s disappearance, is part of a more complicated picture emerging of the capture of a soldier whose five years as a Taliban prisoner influenced high-level diplomatic negotiations, brought in foreign governments, and ended with him whisked away on a helicopter by American commandos.
The furious search for Sergeant Bergdahl, his critics say, led to the deaths of at least two soldiers and possibly six others in the area. Pentagon officials say those charges are unsubstantiated and are not supported by a review of a database of casualties in the Afghan war.
Did the regime know about this beforehand? Of course they did
I am personally offended that anyone calls him "Sergeant". He was a freaking Private when he deserted,so he should still be a Private.
In a cell,waiting for his court-martial and if found guilty,his firing squad.
