Deserter Exchanged for Crack Talaban Leaders?


         Now the nation is learning that members of his own unit have been telling everyone who'd listen that U.S. Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, the soldier released from captivity the other day in exchange for those five hardcore Taliban higher-ups , was taken by the enemy after intentionally deserting his post during guard duty, intentional because he'd 1) asked his team leader what military equipment to leave behind if he did so and clearly took that leader's advice, and 2) already spoken of a desire to flee Afghanistan for Pakistan or India.

         Is this really true?  And how come we're just finding out about it now - after the exchange has been made?  

         Sure smells treasonable to us.
