FORT BRAGG, N.C. (AP) -- Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl's brutal five years of captivity by Taliban allies carried significant weight in an Army judge's decision to spare him prison time for leaving his post in Afghanistan in 2009, legal experts said.

This was a good lead because it introduces the main story, which is the thoughts of Army judge Nancy and why he gave Bergdahl no prison time. This gives us a understanding of what to expect while reading.

A mistake I found this week included an article in military.com which talks about Bowe Bergdahl leaving his post in Afghanistan in 2009. "Bergdahl's decions to walk of Obersavation Post Mest on June 30, 2009 impacted hundreds of troops..." The word "of" in the sentence needs to be the word "off."

  1. I think it's so interesting that you found that mistake! It's funny that even grammar and spelling mistakes can occur with professionals. Also, how awesome that you were paying close enough attention to catch it.
