Your browser doesn’t support HTML5 audio

Even as the Taliban released a video of Army Sgt. Bergdahl's release, questions continue to surround his initial disappearance. Bergdahl has said he was captured by the Taliban while lagging behind on a patrol.

Still, many wonder whether Bergdahl planned to return before his capture.
