Bergdahl

I haven't commented on the sentence received by Bowe Bergdahl for leaving his post in Afghanistan but I did not want this to recede into history in silence.  The military judge who decided that Bergdahl should not go to prison is a fool.  Bergdahl deserted his post and ended up in Taliban captivity for many years.  That was what he chose'; it is not a substitute for justice for his desertion.  Brave men died searching for Bergdahl, and others were wounded.  For that reason alone, he had to be punished.  A year in prison would have been adequate, but no prison is a joke.
