Bowe Bergdahl was discharged from the Coast Guard for psychological reasons
Before he became a Taliban prisoner, before he wrote in his journal
“I am the lone wolf of deadly nothingness,” before he joined the Army,
Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl was discharged from the Coast Guard for psychological
reasons, said close friends who were worried about his emotional health
at the time.
The 2006 discharge and a trove of Bergdahl’s writing — his handwritten journal along with essays, stories and e-mails provided to The Washington Post — paint a portrait of a deeply complicated and fragile young man who was by his own account struggling to maintain his mental stability from the start of basic training until the moment he walked off his post in eastern Afghanistan in 2009.
