Judge Allows Bowe Bergdahl to Be Charged for Endangering Comrades, Faces Life in Prison
Independent Journal Review, Jul 3, 2017, Julio Rosas

A military judge ruled that the charge of endangering service members' lives can be used against Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl at his upcoming trial.

According to the Associated Press, Col. Jeffery Nance reasoned that since some service members had been wounded in firefights on missions looking for Bergdahl, they would've been fine if he hadn't left his post in the first place.

The official charge of misbehavior before the enemy carries a maximum penalty of life in prison.

A Navy SEAL recently testified on his career-ending gunshot wound he received while searching for Bergdahl. According to the AP, retired Senior Chief Petty Officer James Hatch said the last mission he was on was hastily planned; only 90 minutes were given to the SEALs before they left for the mission.

I believe that there were some deaths that occurred in the search too.  Hopefully, they will be introduced.
