He will live in barracks and have two other soldiers help him readjust.
The sergeant has been an outpatient at the hospital for about three weeks, during which time he continued to participate in debriefings about his time as a Taliban prisoner. He was released six weeks ago in exchange for five senior Taliban detainees.
Many of Bergdahl’s fellow soldiers accuse the former POW of desertion, and possibly cavorting with the Taliban.
