It all happened before I got to Sam Houston, but I found out that a few of the guys here at the Fort Sam band ended up getting to know Bergdahl pretty well while he was here. One of our french horn players got tagged to hang out with him, give him a hand with stuff, and ease his transition back into life stateside. A couple of other guys ended up drinking with him fairly often outside the NCO barracks they all lived in. Apparently he'd feed the stray cats around the barracks, and then trap them and re-home them with people he knew. Any time he had to go to Bragg for his court-martial, he'd show up with a case of Shiner and a bag of cat food and ask a friend of mine to feed the cats while he was away - which pretty much amounted to dumping cat food on the ground by a conex that was across the street, but whatever. Opinions on him were mixed, but everybody agreed he had some brain problems going on. Whether those were pre-existing or a result of the whole Taliban thing, I don't know.

Nominating thing guy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Medicine_Crow Medicine Crow completed all four tasks required to become a war chief: touching an enemy without killing him (counting coup), taking an enemy's weapon, leading a successful war party, and stealing an enemy's horse.[6] He touched a living enemy soldier and disarmed him after turning a corner and finding himself face to face with a young German soldier: The collision knocked the German's weapon to the ground. Mr. Crow lowered his own weapon and the two fought hand-to-hand. In the end Mr. Crow got the best of the German, grabbing him by the neck and choking him. He was going to kill the German soldier on the spot when the man screamed out 'momma.' Mr. Crow then let him go.[3] He also led a successful war party and stole fifty horses owned by the Nazi SS from a German camp, singing a traditional Crow honor song as he rode off.[7][8] Medicine Crow is the last member of the Crow tribe to become a war chief. He was interviewed and appeared in the 2007 Ken Burns PBS series The War, describing his World War II service.[3] Filmmaker Ken Burns said, "The story of Joseph Medicine Crow is something I've wanted to tell for 20 years."[9]
