The Pentagon has planned to destroy around $1 billion dollars worth of ammo since April 2014, all because they say there is no system in place to share them across different branches of our armed forces.
“Despite years of effort, the Army, Navy and Air Force still don’t have an efficient process for doing something as basic as sharing excess bullets. This Government Accountability Office (GAO) report clearly shows that our military’s antiquated systems lead to millions of dollars in wasteful ammunition purchases.” states Sen. Tom Carper, D-Del., chairman of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.
And how much did DHS purchase?

stupid
Our government is full of idiots!
anyone wanna bet as soon as this billion is destroyed a new contract will be assigned to some huge liberal donating company for $3 billion in new purchases??
Situation normal, all F*$#@ up!
One fools play by our current government. Our soldiers died in Benghazi because they couldn’t get help and you want to throw away much needed ammo? Have you ever been in a position to need ammo and there isn’t anymore. Ask a combat veteran?
No, no, no
They have to get rid of what they have so they can buy more. Do you still doubt that corporations control our government?
disarming the military so the only ones armed will be the terrorists and the patriots!
Or they can recover funds and sell the ammo to the Public! Wow what a radical idea!
The Pentagon better save the Ammo for the fight ahead, brainless.
