Indicted Army PX fraud case widens probe
The indictment charges Sergeant Major William C. Wooldridge and five others with conspiracy to defraud noncommissioned officers clubs in Asia and elsewhere between 1965 and 1969. Testimony cites Crum, a promoter linked to Jim Beam and Carling, and allegations of lavish gifts, payoffs, and inflated pricing within the Army PX system.
