Mentally, G.I. Has Long Path Back to Idaho

He has been the only prisoner of war in Afghanistan for the past five years. Sgt Bowe Bergdahl is finally free from captivity. He has been held in complete isolation and is in very poor physical conditions. He has a three step treatment before he gets to go home. He first will receive medical treatment and initial counseling in Germany. He then will proceed to get medical help in San Antonio. Finally he will get his homecoming in Idaho. Although he will get counseling along the way, once he is in Idaho he will probably need to forgo more medical counseling.
