| Army: No plans to release results of Bergdahl investigation |
| 2014-10-14 |
| The Army has no plans to release the results of an investigation into Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl's disappearance and capture by the Taliban in 2009, a spokesman said Friday. "We recognize the importance of the media and the public understanding of our investigative process, and look forward to future discussions on this issue. However, the Army's priority is ensuring that our process is thorough, factually accurate, impartial, and legally correct," Army spokesman Wayne Hall said in a statement. The Army is looking into whether Bergdahl deserted his post or was absent without leave, both of which would punishable under military law and force him to forfeit hundreds of thousands of dollars in wages accrued during captivity. Army Maj. Gen. Kenneth Dahl completed a review of this case this week, but Hall declined to set a timeline for a final decision. “At this time, it would be inappropriate to speculate on the potential results or the amount of time the review process will take to complete," Hall said. Bergdahl is currently on active duty and serving at Joint Base San Antonio-Fort Sam Houston. |
