Today marks two years that Sgt. Bowe W. Bergdahl has been in captivity. Bergdahl, from Hailey, Idaho, was discovered missing during his unit’s roll-call in Afghanistan on June 30, 2009.
Sgt. Bergdahl was declared Duty Status Whereabouts Unknown on July 1, 2009, and his status was changed to "Missing-Captured” on July 3, 2009. Bergdahl is a member of the 1st Battalion, 501st Infantry Regiment, 4th Brigade Combat Team, 25th Infantry Division, Fort Richardson, Alaska. The U.S. Army recently announced his promotion to sergeant on June 12, marking his second promotion since his capture. He was promoted to the rank of specialist on June 12, 2010.
“Ever since Sgt. Bergdahl’s capture, U.S. and ISAF forces have made it a top priority to find him and bring him home safely to his family,” said Rear Adm. Vic Beck, director of ISAF Public Affairs. “We will continue in our effort to ensure his safe return. On this important anniversary particularly, our thoughts and prayers are with Sgt Bergdahl and his loved ones.”
