Default Bergdahl walks

From what is being reported, the sentence is just a fine and a Dishonorable Discharge. No prison time

What is galling is that he is intending on appealing the DD!

I guess he is a victim too.

I feel sorry for the men that went looking for him, some did not return

Does this mean Bergdahl won't be collecting his paycheck on the 1st and the 15th anymore?

As part of the sentence, Bergdahl will forfeit his pay of $1000 per month for ten months.

Appealing the sentence- he'd lose his benefits - sheesh, how ~horrible~ for him. I speak with facetious tongue...

Appeals should automatically re-qualify a plaintiff for the maximum penalty, if they lose the appeal... Courts Martial, or otherwise.

Were you at the trial to hear all of the testimony?

The Army is getting what it wants, the defendant is not getting all of what he wanted.
