Prayers for PFC Bowe Bergdahl
http://www.ktvb.com/news/localnews/s....56e8c759.html
HAILEY - The town of Hailey has transformed itself with yellow ribbons and signs of support. Resident Private First Class Bowe Bergdahl was kidnapped by Islamic militants near the Afghanistan-Pakistan border around June 30, but his identity wasn't revealed until Sunday. It didn't take long for the close-knit community to get organized and hit the streets. Volunteers began tying yellow ribbons on street poles and trees throughout Hailey, the ribbons the longstanding symbol of hope for those awaiting the return of a loved one. Hope is the operative word. While the Bergdahl family remains in seclusion, they issued a statement this morning through Blaine County Sheriff Walt Femling. “We have been overwhelmed with the outpouring of support and concern toward Bowe and our family,” Femling read from the statement. “As you know, the situation has been extremely difficult for everyone involved. We'd like to remind all of you that our sole focus is seeing our beloved son Bowe safely home. Please continue to keep Bowe in your thoughts and prayers and we'd ask for you continued respect of our need for privacy in this difficult situation.” Despite their need for solitude, the sheriff says the Bergdahl family also needs support, which this community is famous for. “I anticipate as this moves forward that we'll see a great outpouring from this community and I can tell you, that's helpful to the Bergdahl family," Femling said. There's even more examples of encouragement, such as signs being distributed that say ‘Bring Bowe Home.’ Inside the coffee shop where Bowe used to work, floral bouquets are starting to line the window sills and counters.

The wedding we went to this past weekend was for our niece who married an Army Honor Guard soldier. I met 4 of his friends all around 22-23, and they've all been to Iraq. Damn nice kids...
Haily Idaho is about 125 miles from here...

Sent up from here. Would definitely hate to be in his situation.
I'm shocked there hasn't been more info published on how he got to where he is. I've seen the report that state he just walked out.....makes me curious about a real story.
