To me this hearing thing has taken sooooo long. Has it been dragged out for a real reason?
When Bergdahl came back to the states, he was promoted, that I don’t understand.
I kinda don’t understand his train of thought of him going UA in enemy territory.
Not a smart move. His action costs lives of those who searched for him.
No matter what happens in this case, no one wins.
