The hearing for Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, the soldier who disappeared only to turn up five years later in Taliban hands, has been delayed. The Army will conduct the Article 32 hearing – similar to a civilian grand jury hearing – on Sept. 17 at Fort Sam Houston, Texas, National Public Radio reported. It initially had been scheduled to take place July 7. The Associated Press reported that Bergdahl’s civilian defense lawyer, Eugene E. Fidell, requested the delay because more time was needed to sort through relevant information.
