Breaking Bowe Bergdahl news:
BREAKING: Judge rules that Bowe Bergdahl should serve no prison time for endangering comrades by walking off his Afghanistan post.
— The Associated Press (@AP) November 3, 2017
BREAKING: Berghdahl dishonorably discharged, reduced rank of private but no jail time for abandoning his post in Afghanistan in 2009
— Alex Horton (@AlexHortonTX) November 3, 2017
Bergdahl was visibly shaken before the sentence and during yesterday’s remarks. The court cleared immediately

Bergdahl will also forfeit $10K. His discharge means he won’t have VA health care or benefits unless Gen. Robert Abrams overturns decision

Reduced rank? A fine? No VA benefits? That’s it???

This is Sgt Mark Allen. Bowe Bergdahl gave him a life sentence in a body that no longer functions. Judge should be removed from bench #tcot pic.twitter.com/OgUkDfpI4N
