I do think he should be able to get medical care benefits

From what I understand, he won't. My understanding is that a DD kills all veterans benis. Bo D probably knows that subject better than I do, so if he contradicts me, he is probably right
He is very lucky is isn't at Leavenworth making little rocks out of big rocksLast edited by happyone; 11-03-2017, 09:26 PM.

happyone, you're absolutely right.
I don't care who pays for his treatment, I just hope he gets the help he needs.Comment

I'm also not aware of him being convicted for desertion until now. I guess Topper believes in due process only situationally.Originally posted by Maximus View PostComment

This just occurred to me, if Sgt Bergdahl had gone to Leavenworth, the Army would have provided his treatment, because he would have been a soldier. His DD wouldn't have come into affect until after he had served his sentence. So in some ways this is a harsher sentence.

The vindictiveness over this case is ugly. And our dumb president is making it worse.

He is completely incapable of acting presidential.Originally posted by Jeff Lebowski View PostComment

Wasn't he convicted, or accepted a plea, and was just given a sentence? He left his post, and his search and rescue caused injuries to other soldiers because he abandoned his post. Should it go through the process? Of course, but did this magistrate go awry? Who knows.Originally posted by frank ryan View Post
But why did the US military risk life and limb for a deserter? That seems to be bad policy. If the US wants to give him crappy VA benefits it's no skin off my nose, but I wouldn't care if they didn't give him them either. I just don't see the reasoning of providing a deserter anything. You don't wish to serve after you enlisted? Fine, leave with nothing seems to be the fair remedy."Guitar groups are on their way out, Mr Epstein."

Here is an article describing some of the factors that went in to Bergdahl's sentence.
