I suspect he'll be courtmarshalled, found guilty ... he'll serve maybe a little time, but will be dishonorably discharged. From all accounts, his brain is scramballed. Maybe we send him to the Phoenix VA Hospital ... to wait for care!
That's good that they will investigate. What I find interesting is not that some members of his unit accuse him of desertion, but that none have come forward in his defense. I'm not even sure what his defense is in this case.
We owe it to the soldiers who died trying to find him to get to the bottom of this, rather than rushing to promote him and probably award him medals. At least the promotion is on hold for now. If he is a deserter - or worse, a traitor - then he should be treated as such. In the meantime, though, the presumption of innocence applies.
Sadly, where there is so little evidence that he was captured, and everything is pointing in the bad direction, that's probably the direction this will go in, and rightly so.
"Pfc. Bowe Bergdahl left behind a note in his tent saying he had become disillusioned with the Army, did not support the American mission in Afghanistan and was leaving to start a new life."

I think this administration is converting a lot of Democratics to something else. This is borderline treason
It's called progressivism, and it's the most dangerous threat to the United States and our Constitution in history. They are trying to dismantle us from within.

Whoa... and alien abductions are real, chem-trails are poisoning us, and I saw big foot.
The five men they traded for one deserter were the west equivalent to generals. THEY DO POSE A THREAT
As for Guantanimo, well you should be asking Obama why he hasn't closed it. After all, he promised to nearly seven years ago. But then, promises do not seem to be one of his priorities.
So, your point is one should be automatically presumed guilty upon any allegation whatsoever?
The U.S. Army already knows Bergdahl is guilty of desertion. He left a desertion note in his tent.
