re: #321 Cheechako

Late last night someone posted a Wikileaks post containing the supposed transcript of the events surrounding Bergdahls capture. The military posting had transcripts of the translated, real-time Taliban radio conversations during Bergdahl’s capture.

Has this “leak” been confirmed?

If so, the Taliban were talking about a US soldier answering “a call of nature” just before he was captured. He was captured “after he cleaned up”.

It would be extremely ironic if a Wikileaks release gave the best reason of why Bergdahl was away from his post!

Confirmed? No, but it’s been reported by the media, even as recently as this past March, that Wikileaks had a transcript showing radio chatter from the Taliban in the area at that time. That they’d caught a soldier in a makeshift latrine without a gun and sent out word to make a video announcing his capture.
