As well as the guys meeting them there with Bergdahl. Collateral damage would not have been a concern of mine.
The guys meeting them there for the exchange were American soldiers. They would be a concern of mine. Bergdahl's desertion already cost brave worthy of the name American soldiers their lives. No need to cost others theirs just for picking this deserter up from his terrorist buddies. Oh, I mean captives.
Bergdahl removed his uniform when he was manning his guard post, folded it neatly, and then left it and his Army issued rifle at the site and walked into the Afghanistan night.
Later, "while captive" of his terrorist Taliban captors he made a video at their behest. In full Army camouflage uniform!
Where did he get that? When he had left his own uniform behind? And his helmet?

What's the sunglasses concealing I wonder.
I don't doubt Obama will pardon him if he's found guilty, since right before Obama leaves office in less than 20 months he can pardon anyone he wants. And being he's a terrorist sympathizer and has demonstrated himself to be a traitor when he released five terrorist leaders in exchange for this Army deserter, he'll no doubt pardon every single person now held in Guantanamo Bay and return that property to Cuba.
Thereby fulfilling his campaign promise to close Guantanamo that way when he failed prior.
