Navy store favors for top officers cited in IG report
A Navy store in Virginia gave senior officers and their families large discounts on items from Christmas trees to diamonds and Brooks Brothers suits. The 86 page inspector general report found preferential treatment in many cases, with some officers seeking deals while Norfolk personnel were unaware. Rear Adm. John Kavanaugh, named in the report, faced accusations of special services and a forced discount, though he denies the charges.
