As Sergeant Bowe bergdahl remains hospitalized in stable condition, some of his fellow soldiers are making stunning accusations about his capture by the taliban. He walked away.

Launched a massive search that bergdahls team leader, former Army Sergeant evan buetow, and others say resulted in the deaths of american soldiers. People calling him a hero. And people calling him this great soldier. Its a spit in the face to the soldiers who died as a direct result to him leaving.
