This photo taken Sept. 26, 2012 shows Charles and Liz Koch at Koch Headquarters in Wichita, Kansas. The Kochs are demonized by Democrats, who lack a liberal equal to counter their weight, and not entirely understood by Republicans, who benefit from their seemingly limitless donations. Married 44 years Liz says she is the only one that has cut his hair since they've been married. (AP Photo/The Wichita Eagle, Bo Rader)

FILE - In this July 27, 1944, file photo, Lt. Gen. Lesley J. McNair poses for a photo in Tunisia, after he was wounded by shrapnel during a visit to the war front. He wears the Purple Heart awarded him at the time. The deaths of five Americans killed in a U.S. airstrike in Afghanistan stand as a fresh reminder of the dangers of friendly fire, an element of war that is older than the nation. In World War II, McNair died when an errant Allied bomb struck his position as the Allies struggled to break out from Normandy. (AP Photo)

In this image taken from video obtained from Voice Of Jihad Website, which has been authenticated based on its contents and other AP reporting, Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl sits in a vehicle guarded by the Taliban in eastern Afghanistan. The Taliban have released a video showing the handover of Bergdahl to U.S. forces in eastern Afghanistan. The video, emailed to media on Wednesday, shows Bergdahl in traditional Afghan clothing sitting in a pickup truck parked on a hillside. More than a dozen Taliban fighters with machine guns stand around the truck and on the hillside. That feel-good moment in the Rose Garden sure seems like a long time ago. Just a week after the president announced that Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl had been freed in Afghanistan, details emerging about the soldier, the deal and how the rescue came together are only adding to the list of questions. A look at what's known _ and unknown _ about saving Sgt. Bergdahl. (AP Photo/Voice Of Jihad Website via AP video)
