BERGER TOOK PAPERS TO A HIDING PLACE
By Jerry Seper
THE WASHINGTON TIMES
Former National Security Adviser Samuel R. Berger, fined $50,000 for
taking classified documents from the National Archives, hid the papers
under a construction trailer where they later could easily be
retrieved, a report yesterday said.
The National Archives Office of Inspector General said that during a
2003 visit to the facility, Mr. Berger left the building unescorted for
a break, during which time he "placed the documents under a trailer in
an accessible construction area outside Archives 1 (the main Archives
building)."
