HOUSTON (AP) —The U.S. Army has begun questioning Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl about his disappearance in Afghanistan that led to five years in captivity by the Taliban, his attorney and an Army spokeswoman said Wednesday.

Bergdahl was questioned at Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio, where he has been staying since returning to the U.S., said his attorney, Eugene R. Fidell.

"Sgt. Bergdahl answered all questions put to him. The interview is proceeding. It has been a productive expenditure of time," Fidell said in a telephone interview during a break in the questioning. Fidell declined to comment on what specific questions Bergdahl was asked.

Lt. Col. Alayne Conway, an Army spokeswoman, said Bergdahl was advised of his rights under Article 31 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice. Article 31 pertains to individuals being informed of the nature of the accusation against them and says that they do not have to make any statement to investigators.

1. He's lawyered up. He'll be fine.

This is a dance, laid out like in the Arthur Murray studio. Everyone will follow the little footprints, and that will be the end of it.

2. He hasn't been allowed to talk to his parents yet.

According to one report I saw on tv about him this week.
I wonder why the Army wouldn't want him to talk to them.
It makes no sense to me.

4. I've read he's refused to see his parents.

3. America's media "we leave no one behind" meant nothing.

By yours truly and fueled by hatred.
