chris_gerribStill busy (and alas, can't do certain tasks at work) but a few links about Bowe Bergdahl and his release.
A) Bergdahl may have walked off base more than once, including in Afghanistan.
B) Dear Soldier: We need some information in case you're captured. Such as: 2) Do you believe in The Mission? We actually don’t care whether you believe in the mission you’re assigned to do. You’re a soldier/airman/seaman/Marine, and you do what you’re told. However, to assist in determining your worthiness for rescue, please let us know now if you think you might at any point in the future express doubts about the morality of any cause you may be sent to support, or whether you anticipate any experiences while deployed might cause you to see said deployment in a negative light. Again, your answer in the space provided will be checked against future statements you may make.
C) America, What The Hell is Wrong With Us? Money quote: But the bottom line is that if you see a woman standing in the middle of the road and a Mack Truck bearing down on her, you don't stop to grill her on whether she just used heroin or left her child on a stoop somewhere. You pick her up and swoop her out of the street, and deal with the rest later.
