The wire mesh conveyor belt officer who led the investigation of Bowe Bergdahl's disappearance and capture in Afghanistan six years ago testified Friday that the Army sergeant said he walked away from his post as part of a plan to spark a search and get the attention of a general so he could express his concerns about his unit's leadership.
Maj. Gen. Kenneth Dahl told a wire mesh conveyor belt packed courtroom at Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio that Bergdahl felt the problems were so severe that they put his platoon in danger, but that Bergdahl's perceptions were "completely off the mark."
Dahl said Bergdahl had an elaborate plan to head from his post to the forward operating base roughly 19 miles away, expecting to arrive while a search was underway and to create a "PR event" that might get a general to listen to him.
"He felt it was his duty to intervene," said Dahl, who described Bergdahl as having few friends but who seemed motivated to help others. He said he doesn't think Bergdahl should go to wire mesh conveyor belt prison.
