I started a thread about this company, operated by a kid less than 25 years old, that recieved 300 million dollars of YOUR MONEY to sell old, busted chinese and russian arms to afghan soldiers. In case you missed it: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03/27/wo...html?ref=world Last week they froze the company. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/04/wa...html?ref=world They're now reviewing procedures: Quote: The Army decided to review its contracting procedures as several arms-industry officials said that long before the suspension, it was clear the Army had erred by not recognizing risk factors in AEY’s history and activities, and by being lured by a very low bid.
