Bushies Fail To Secure Sensitive US Military Hardware (* A federal agent I know works for this undercover group and may have taken part in this op. He is former Secret Service and told me last year that the level of corruption in DC has never been higher) Report: DOD sells sensitive military equipment By Rich Gardella Producer, NBC Investigative Unit NBC News Updated: 5:10 p.m. PT July 21, 2006 Government Accountability Office investigators posing as private citizens were able to buy sensitive excess military equipment from a Department of Defense logistics agency, a GAO report obtained by NBC News shows. The equipment included two launcher mounts for shoulder-fired guided missiles, two guided missile radar test sets, ceramic body armor inserts currently used by deployed troops in Iraq and Afghanistan, a digital signal converter used in naval surveillance, an all-band antenna used to track aircraft and 12 digital microcircuits used in F-14 fighter aircraft. GAO identified at least 79 buyers of 2,669 sensitive items between November 2005 and June 2006.
