BRUSSELS (AP) — Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel says it is unfair to
the family of released captive Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl to leap to
conclusions about his behavior in uniform.
Hagel says, quote, “We don’t do that in the United States.” Hagel told reporters at a NATO defense ministers meeting Wednesday. “We rely on facts.”
Hagel said the Army will review of all the circumstances surrounding how he left his unit and was captured by the Taliban, and added: “It’s not my place as a former sergeant in the Army to decide who’s worthy of being a sergeant and who isn’t.”
Bergdahl was released Saturday from five years’ captivity by the Taliban in exchange for five top Taliban officials.

Hagel is an obvious traitor! This is a job for the elite “Malkin’s Marauders” Countertop Inspection Commando unit of the 101st Chairborne “Fightin’ Keyboarders!”
The president was fully within his Constitutional prerogatives when he swapped POWs.
