Josh Korder, a former Army sergeant from Minnesota who served with Bowe Bergdahl, signed a non-disclosure agreement, and admits he may be in violation of that by speaking out. He also left the service with an other than honorable discharge.
Jake Tapper et al in the future, try vetting your "sources". You let Richard Grenell, GOP operative peddle these guys to the media and let them create the narrative (Rove style). You let them repeat things that have now been found to have no basis in truth.
