OK, Boss, I will try and find a transcript and get back to you.
I was going by CNN's report that seemed to me to describe the horror and desperation of a search that left the poor long suffering captain's uniform filthy dirty.
A platoon out for a month seems pretty silly, especially since there was no food or water resupply in that time that just might have included some socks.
I have a hunch that in a close knit platoon the feeling was that that silly goose Bergdahl fucked up again, but we better go look.
The brass more likely felt that bring him back dead or alive was the best way to save face and rank.
