It's a strange story. I kinda wonder why HQ was so determined to hunt for him.

There is more to this story than we or the grunts on the ground know about.

People with no real information, embarking upon character assassination of Berghdahl....

Probably an alphabet soup list of agencies that could do such a thing.
Could there be reasons they are not?
We simply are not on the 'need to know' list...

But, once Issa declares it a scandal, and a cover-up, then we can have ourselves a grand ole time with a year or two worth of hearings!!!

Yeah, I guess....but:

What really bothers ME are the times when the C-in-C sends the troops into dubious battle without a clear mission, strategy or exit plan.

Over and over.

I agree. Maybe the C-in-C you're talking about should have stuck to his true passion. Imagine how many lives that would have saved.
