Strong feeling this will be seen again. Good memes don’t die. They just become reposts.
NotWrenP
Either you die as original content. Or live long enough to become a repost

I just lost it in the public waiting room I was in and had to walk out as a result of OP and this comment.

HAHAHAHAHA -he was tortured for 5 years and his country is now punishing him more- HAHAHAHAHAH
dsb5772
Hahaha He endangered multiple military personnel because he deserted HAHAHA Learn some context to punishment before you whine

Got six soldiers killed*

That dude is such a POS. How do you not get jail time for all that? There are injured soldiers who went to rescue him and he just left.
boom1chaching
It's not extremely common, from what I've seen, for military to get jailtime in military court. A dishonorable ruins your life pretty 1/
boom1chaching
Hard. He most likely can never find a job above minimum wage again, which he'd have a hard time ever getting as well.
LavaAxe
Well ... it's not like he could've phoned them to call off the search because he was captured.
Derodric
Not to mention the ones who actually died.
FacelessPotatoPie
None died, so no worries there mate.
cinderbl0ckno
At least six soldiers died, and then five Taliban prisoners traded for him
MrTay
That’s bs. Idk where that rumor is from but the army has officially repudiated it
cinderbl0ckno
Rumor? Just google it. And where are you seeing the army officially repudiated it?
MarioBoon
Blame Trump. His words were a direct cause for the judge to lighten his sentence.
HalfOpenSkies
Since when do military courts give judgements only to spite POTUS?
MornieAlantie
It may have been seen as unlawful command influence. He commands the military, his comments could be seen as trying to influence the verdict
MarioBoon
You'd have to do the research yourself on previous rulings, but in this case it happened
BeardedScarecrow
Chelsea Manning got a presidential pardon 4 leaking classified docs that compromised thousands I hope Bergdahl gets a presidential pardon to
MarioBoon
No chance in hell for that.
TargaryenLoyalist
Manning got her sentence commuted; that’s different from a pardon.

Serial has an interesting podcast (season 2) on this guy.
findtheotters
Who dat guy
PepperPeanutsVagenis
A deserter and a traitor who was responsible for the deaths of a few US soldiers.
waphles
The scum didn't even get prison time, which tells everyone else in the military, you can desert and only punishment is no benefits...
Rexli78
And do you know why he's not going to prison? Because dickless Donnie went and tainted the jury pool by attacking the guy. If he had kept
Rexli78
his screaming howler shut for once he wouldn't have gotten off.
waphles
I'm more concerned about the effect on current military members. Tells them they can desert, get their own brothers killed in searching for
waphles
Them and still not see prison time. Shows weakness and is a dangerous precedent.
zutaramyotp
im pretty sure they took the fact that he was held prisoner and tortured by the taliban for 5 years into consideration.
waphles
Which would have never happened had he not deserted.
PoPyOyO90
If you'd like to know more about him and his perspective, there's this really good podcast that went in depth on his whole situation. 1/2
PoPyOyO90
It's called Serial and it's only the second season where they talk about him. It's produced by the same guys that make "This American Life"
MrAwful
Link?
PoPyOyO90
https://serialpodcast.org/season-two It's very eye opening and I encourage anyone interested to give it a listen!
ThatCoolGuyYouMetAtThatOnePlace
Such a good podcast. It made me look at the whole thing in a completely different way.
MrDomino
Anyone going to mention he became a POW of the Taliban and was tortured for 5+ years? It's a bit relevant to the context.
cinderbl0ckno
That's expected when you desert your post in a war zone. And there is no proof of torture anyway, he just said they did.
BooksandBiceps
He was literally given gifts when he left by the Taliban.

Bowe Bergdahl: A coward, deserter, and traitor. His actions cost the lives of other service members.
MrTay
1. Army has come out and said none were killed in attempts to fight him 2. The army broke all protocol when they deployed him. You don’t 1/

Take skitsofrantic then get made when they act like a skitsofrantic.

ErnestoJackson
What’s the TL;DR?
PotatoesPotate
He's the guy that deserted his post in Afghanistan, got captured by taliban for 5 years. Just finished his trial for deserting.
HowAboutThatUpdog
Can't believe he didn't get prison for it. He deserves it.
questionableanswers
Thank Trump for that. If the president calls for rought punishment the judge has to lean into the other direction. Trump said it sev. times
d0o0o0d
...and guys got killed trying to find/rescue him, because they thought he'd been captured.
BringBackVanillaCoke
Dahl testified that he had found no evidence that any soldiers had been killed while specifically engaged in the effort to retrieve Bergdahl
kittykat
Did he just admit he deserted and wasn't captured or was it discovered another way?
ErnestoJackson
thank you potato man
ArentWetheWaggies
Guy left his post in the middle of the night. He was disillusioned and thought he was going to make a point that leadership was failing 1/?
idontenglishsorry
nice, thanks
ColoradoStateRams
A piece of human garbage that got a dog killed and his brothers injured when he deserted and was searched for
teddymao
The response to his return has only solidified the idea for me that the majority of americans, including him, are mentally ill.
secretagentstv
Wasn't he possibly mentally ill? Like couldn't get into the coast guard for failing personality test?
Cooter961relaxitsakindofturtle
I was there in boot camp dec-feb 05-06 with him he washed out for being a piece of shit there’s no personality tests
jmeyers1983
A psychologist also recommended he not deploy, his commanding officer ignored that.
secretagentstv
Ya they talk about people who were injured or killed looking for him but not about him. He should not have been there.
jmeyers1983
For real. He does bear a good bit of blame, but there are many others that should get their share of justice too
Anatoos
He was tortured and beaten by in a cage after the Talibans captured him. Cut the boy some slacks...
TheSirCharlesBarkley
What size would he like his slacks?
clitoricalquestion
FUCK that. If he hadn't deserted his brothers, that shit never would've happened. He brought all that on himself.
kinkycombatcutie12b
Six men killed
MrTay
It true even the army has denied those claims.
BringBackVanillaCoke
Dahl testified that he had found no evidence that any soldiers had been killed while specifically engaged in the effort to retrieve Bergdahl
