Bergdahl Team Leader: He Sought Communication With the Taliban (Washington Free Beacon)

Former Army Sgt. Evan Buetow told CNN’s Jake Tapper that intercepted radio and cell phone communications in Afghanistan revealed newly freed Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl sought to talk to the Taliban before he was captured.

Buetow also described how he feared Bergdahl had given the Taliban vital information that allowed them to orchestrate better attacks against U.S. troops. The efficacy of the Taliban after Bergdahl’s disappearance was suspicious, Buetow said, although he said there wasn’t any conclusive proof that he collaborated with the enemy.
