To a NCM spouter: Former Army officer, Nathan Bradley Bethea, of the 1st Battalion, 501st Parachute Infantry Regiment, which lost six soldiers in the hunt for deserter Bergdahl, stated, "for five years we were forced to remain silent about the disappearance and search for Bergdahl, now we can tell our story." Bethea gave details how each of the soldiers were killed looking for Bergdahl. Other soldiers have backed Bethea's claims. The Pentagon will never tell the truth that soldiers were killed looking for a deserter that Obama traded five terrorists for.
