PFC Bergdahl

Comment Up
It seems young PFC Bergdahl became disenchanted with Army life. As has been said repeatedly by those who know him, by the words he himself put in writing in letters and emails to his family prior to June of 2009, the Army is not the Peace Corp with guns. He felt he wasn’t doing what he intended, so he decided to go off into the mountains to find himself.

So, he shipped his personal belongings back to his family in Idaho. Then, he simply walked off the base, taking only some water and a knife, leaving behind his rifle and all his gear. He went to at least one nearby village, asking for water and directions to where the Taliban were. Some of those villagers granted his wish. I wonder how long it took him to figure out that the Taliban had as much interest in helping him ‘find himself’ as did the Army.

WTF??? I can't believe this story. What a slap in the face to those who have served and especially those who lost their lives. Another embarrassment for our Country at the feet of the worst President of the US I have experienced!
