ligence, [Naval Investigative Service, and Defense Investigative Service], the idea that “nobody knows where the money went” is ludicrous. The green eyeshade guys may not be able to find it, but good investigators can almost always follow the money trail. It’s where the trail leads that is

the problem — like through offices of senior military and civilian ad- ministrators to corporate entities and elected officials, many of whom are incompetent and/or dishonest. The trail would be convoluted and sickening and lead to the highest reaches of government. President Eisenhower warned of the military-industrial complex. If he had added government to the warning, he would have been right- on. The stench from both banks of the Potomac grows and desperately needs [to be] attacked, so please don’t add to the idea that it is hopeless. —Lt. Cmdr. Carl R. Amick, USNR-Ret. via email

Honoring Officers [“History of Heroes,” December 2011] by Gina DiNicolo was an interesting [article], but one date she used struck me as being wrong; that was the date “1913, officers were deemed eligible for the medal.” My immediate thought was, what about [Army] Col. Joshua Chamberlain [who received the Medal of Honor for his actions] at Gettysburg and 2nd Lt. Tom Custer, who received two Medals of Honor for capturing rebel flags in two different battles? In the book Above and Beyond (Smithsonian, 2002), produced in cooperation with the Congressional Medal of Honor Society …, [it states] the Army changed the rules to allow officers in 1863 and the Navy in 1915. —Lt. Col. Stanley V. Preidis, USAF-Ret. Manistee, Mich.
