Saving Private Bergdahl -- Christian D'Andrea, Politico
How a member of a special operations unit almost lost his leg—and his life—on a mission to retrieve Bowe Bergdahl.
Recently I received the following email from a service member I have known for years whose career in a special-operations unit was ended when he was wounded in July 2009:
“The night I was shot, I was on a rescue mission to save Bowe Bergdahl. He is a deserter. The information I was given before I went on the mission told me as much. He willingly walked off his base.
More than a few service-members risked their lives trying to find/rescue him.”
C. was an assault-team member in a direct-action unit when it was tasked with a mission to recover Pfc. Bowe Bergdahl days after he walked off his base in Afghanistan in 2009. He has not spoken about it before because he comes from a community that values codes of silence.
