(WASHINGTON DC) - This week in New York City, veterans let Good Morning America and their audience know that we have not and will not forgot about our POW-MIA's especially Bowe R. Bergdahl.

New York City's finest, GMA security and the entire staff of Good Morning America went out of their way to accommodate us and tell their viewers they want Bowe Home too! This, as we reach the young man's birthday, another year in captivity.

I received a birthday note for Bowe Bergdahl from a friend that puts my feelings, frustration into words.

    Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, American POW, captured June 30th 2009 turned 28, 3/28/1214. To make a very long story short. American negotiators have been working on his release for the past few years and have been 'blocked' twice by the Karzai government. "Proof Of Life" videos have been received by the family. Only one fact is needed to be discussed. This American Soldier needs to be returned to his Family and Country.

    Faith, Trust, Truth Responsibility and Accountability are at stake here and a failure here is a failure on this Administration and Every member of this Congress. All the cover statements such as ,"everything that can be done is being done", this is a number one priority", we support our troops"..won't cover the Failure to bring home this American POW!

    Happy Birthday Sgt Bowe Bergdahl ? I doubt it, BUT his Family can be sure to know and do know that there are those who continue to work and write, call and speak to representatives 'every' opportunity they get to remind them of Their responsibility and the fact that they would have to live with any such failure.

I first heard about this story at Bike Week a couple of weeks ago in Daytona, Fl. I am PISSED OFF!!!!!!!! Wonderful people I met and informed me on the lack of responsability of returning him home to his family. I have been meaning to contact our "Congress" and finally did so today. Then I get on line right now to check out this webiste and find out it is his Birthday.

Wow! I am not sure as to what I can do but will do whatever I can to help support his family and friends. My heart goes out to all of you as do my prayers.

I not let this one go and I have his black rubber band around my ankle for support and have not taken it off and will not until this Soldier is returned.

My Name is Jeri and I am Irish/Indian. Oh! Also, I am a Red Head with a very BIG mouth and extremely persistant and don't quit. I will contact Congress everyday and bring attention to the Florida area along with 3 other states where I have 2 other memebers whom have served in our Military. Please contact me at molloy5611@gmail.com and let me know if there is anything I can do. My heart is bleeding for you and your family.

Please let me know what else I can do. WE WILL GET THIS MAN HOME EVEN IF I HAVE NEVER MET HIM..........

I am grieving with you.....

God bless, and I plan on driving our Goverment insane on a daily basis even if its multiple times a day. Please keep me updated as this truely touched my heart and my deepest concerns.
