U.S. deserter vanished 28 years ago after fleeing Air Force base found in Sweden
« on: June 17, 2012, 11:46:45 AM »
28 years after deserting the U.S. Air Force, a serviceman believed dead has stunned his family by contacting them from where has been living, as a fugitive, in Sweden.

Now aged 47, David Hemler vanished in 1984 while serving at a base in Germany, fleeing the country without a trace.

The conservative-raised airman hitchhiked through Denmark to Sweden after getting involved with a pacifist church - and a girl.

He felt in awe of the ‘fantasy world’ of Germany, its people ‘very involved in peace movements’ and became disillusioned with the policies of former President Ronald Reagan.

So, at 19 he decided, just barely out of basic training to betray his country, and his oath.

It should be no surprise an Air Force base was found in Sweden.  We have bases all of the EU...

I say revoke his citizenship and ban him from ever coming back if he likes it there so much.

Doubt the Swedes would extradite him, I'll settle for Airwolf's solution.  He'd only get a few years, tops, and then we'd be stuck with taking care of his sorry ass on welfare, MedicAid, etc., etc. for the rest of his useless life if we did get him back.

No experience in the matter but, I hear drugs mask your sense of smell.  So there's that.
