So after a completed 15-6 investigation after a walk off the FOB, after all of the testimony of the other Soldiers in his unit, after all of the SMs harmed while out searching for him, Maj. Gen. Dahl spends an hour and a half with him and is convinced that he shouldn't go to jail and that everyone else up to him had been wrong? This can't be true, please tell me it isn't true?
***EDITED****
My apologies to all, the article said that BG Dahl spent a day and a half, not an hour and a half. My apologies, but that still does not change my stance since I was in Afghanistan when this happened and saw a lot of my buddies get effed up following cell chatter into a ambush.

Keep the officers out of it, allow those enlisted personal who were there with him make that choice... Desertion is what it is, and no political correctness will save his butt.

i cannot believe the recommendations that are being considered at this time. reading comments that question the the basic integrity of presiding officers is a challenge to the leadership of our army. Our leadership at the army level is at question. those in the key leadership positions need to stand up and be counted. Career progression/prromotion (as some know) should be based on recognized performance and accomplishments coupled with technical/tactical proficiency. It appears to me that the leadership is not standing up for our army (past,present and future). For the enlisted force, we need our CSM to speak for the force that he truly represents, you are our standard bearer and leading example for the enlisted force. You must speak for us and state that this is wrong. You must know that we have your 6. respectfully SGM RICHARD A HOLLOWAY, USA RETIRED

Anyone saying that MG Dahl did this for his next promotion should recognize that all promotions at that level have to be given congressional approval. The republicans control congress, so I see this hurting him a lot more than it helps. I would hope he came to the best decision possible with a lot more information available to him than we have.

Capt Jeff S.
There's enough RINO's in Congress pushing the Progressive agenda and voting with the Democrats to give Obama whatever he wants, and under McConnell and Boehner Obama pretty much got everything he needed. Okay, it may not have been all he wanted, but it was all he needed. Obama was able to commit treason and avoid impeachment. And seeing as he got away with shirking his Constitutional duties, abusing his Executive authority to circumvent Congress, illegal prisoner swaps, aiding and abetting Islamic terrorism, etc. It's not a stretch to think that MG Dahl will still get promoted -- if White House Commandant Valerie "Jihad" Jarrett deems him worthy of promotion. ; )

I hope that regardless of the outcome, everything is released to the public. If there is some sort of extenuating circumstance then it needs to be released. I personally can’t imagine what this turd had to say that would warrant what he did. He is a traitor in my opinion, based off my current level of knowledge and should be put away in a dark cell to rot.
