Bowe Bergdahl could end court martialed with no death penalty

Sgt Bowe Bergdahl the former JBER soldier is being charged with acts of desertion according to the Washington Post and Alaska Dispatch News.  On March 25, 2015, he was charged by military prosecutors under a military code for putting other members of his unit in danger and desertion under articles 85 and 90.  One of those members who I will not name is a co worker at my current job.  According to the ABC Radio reports I herd on March 26th according to KXLY Radio and KAST Radio an Astoria station.  I had also heard due to his actions he will not be charged with the death penalty but could serve the rest of his life in a military prison.  If convicted he will be reduced to the rank of private forfeit all future pay.  The real question is will he have to pay income tax on it since his pay will go to house him in a military prison.  He will be reduced to rank E-1 be dishonorably discharged means no military benefits can not use VA benefits revoked of all military base access.  Can not be president or possibly a federal elected official.  He could return to Hailey, Idaho as a citizen but would have to pay his own way since can not go to school on GI Bill.  A dishonorable discharge is the military way of say you are fired.  If he is in lifetime incarnation he would get medical benefits during his prison stay only.  His family could visit him at a military prison facility for the remainder of his physical life. 

Anchorage Municipality coffers may end up in a surplus

Since their will be $4 to 6 million dollar savings.  First of all Anchorage has real needs that is the following instead of creating a bureaucrat to solve the homeless problem like Elvi Gray-Jackson suggested.  Let charities like Downtown Soup Kitchen, Salvation Army, Catholic Charities and private non profits do this.  Government should not be involved in this issue.  The Anchorage 12th man will make sure this will not happen.  Let's deputize all security personal by putting mini Anchorage Police substations at Dimond Center, Tikatknu Commons, 5th Avenue Mall, Northway Mall, Glenn Square Mall, Carrs Sears Mall, Muldoon Mall, Loussac Library and Anchorage Bus Accommodation Center if not a full time officer district these officers.  Give the Community Service Patrol the power to arrest.  If you go to the drunk three times in a year you must sign a statement stating you have abused your public benefits.  If you are picked up a fourth time a mental evaluation will be done.  You will be required to have a payee for SSI benefits if a fifth time if you came from an Alaskan village.  You will get a one way ticket back to that village unless you have medical reason you will not be allowed back in Anchorage unless you want to go to jail.  You are kicked out of Anchorage for abuse of taxpayer funds.  More police and fire is good as well.  Let's also do something that might help how about some property tax relief reduce the property taxes for other areas who do not use much municipal resources.
