Two U.S. admirals — including the director of naval intelligence — are under investigation as part of a major bribery scandal involving a foreign defense contractor, Navy officials announced Friday night.
Vice Adm. Ted Branch, the service’s top intelligence officer, and Rear Adm. Bruce Loveless, the Navy’s director of intelligence operations, were placed on leave Friday, and their access to classified material was suspended, the Navy said in a statement.

I remember reading a story in 1973, when I was in Korea, about three Army Generals who were convicted of paying for top quality beef and delivering poor quality beef to the troops, pocketing the difference. As a past soldier and an American, we must "trust" these type men to lead and protect us? Happy Veterans Day!!!
