Report: Bergdahl Investigation Completed…But Release Being Delayed

Report: Bergdahl Investigation Completed…But Release Being Delayed
Waiting till after elections in November
The Army has completed its investigation into Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl’s 2009 disappearance from his post in Afghanistan that led to his subsequent capture by the Taliban, according to a news report Thursday.
A report by the investigating officer, Brig. Gen. Kenneth Dahl, is now being reviewed by commanders, but will not be released, according to the San Antonio Express-News.
Army spokesman Wayne Hall said the review process likely would be lengthy, and that “the Army’s priority is ensuring that our process is thorough, factually accurate, impartial, and legally correct,” according to the report.
The Army is looking into whether Bergdahl had deserted his post in Afghanistan or was away without leave before he was captured, which would be violations of, and punishable under, the Uniform Code of Military Justice.
The Obama administration secured Bergdahl’s release in May in exchange for releasing five senior Taliban detainees from the Guantánamo Bay detention facility, a swap that sparked anger on Capitol Hill from both Democrats and Republicans.
The administration said it had ignored a law requiring it to notify members of Congress 30-days ahead of any detainee release from the facility, since it conflicted with the president’s constitutional right to protect Americans overseas, and out of concern that a leak could derail the deal and endanger Bergdahl or his rescuers.


Wild Thing’s comment.…………
Any way this can be messed with it will be, so far everything connected to Obama means people get away with whatever they do.

If the report is anything but an agreement Bergdahl’s fellow platoon members stated then the report is doctored.
