After several short chapters that cover War Department corruption and
mismanagement from the Civil War through World War II, he then gets into
more current issues with chapter titles that include names such as Howard
Hughes, Benny Meyers, Harold Talbott, Robert McNamara, Roswell Gilpatric,
and Fred Korth. Other chapters concern various weapon systems procurement
scandals, the Pentagon's "black" budget, kickbacks for generals disguised
as consulting or travel-expense fees, nonprofits such as Aerospace
Corporation that contract with the military and suck in huge amounts for
questionable expenditures, and the "profit pyramid," where layers of
subcontractors each add on their profit margins and pass the bill up to
the next level until it finally reaches the Pentagon and the taxpayer.
