Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl's release won high praise in some corners -- but some are upset with the move.
Why a former member of Bergdahl's unit is outraged. U.S. Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, the only known American prisoner of war in Afghanistan, is finally coming back to the United States.

Bergdahl was handed over to U.S. special forces by the Taliban in exchange for the release of five Afghan detainees who were being held by the United States at Guantanamo Bay. The negotiations were mediated by the government of Qatar.

I think the soldier has some kind of mental health issue. If someone is wondering at the risk of themselves or their own infantry... raises all kinds of flags that were missed by the higher ups. Especially with the scandal of how veterans aren't receiving the treatment and care needed, it could be more of the same with this soldier's wandering problem. Did the Military let him slip through the cracks????
