Army Open Mess alleged to be lucrative for sergeants
A Senate investigation alleges on base open messes generated over 750 million dollars in sales with 53.4 million in profits last year. Witnesses accuse a group of sergeants of skimming funds via slot takeoffs and kickbacks and say four sergeants avoided prosecution through high level influence. The probe cites Swiss bank accounts used for illicit funds and notes a summit at Fort Benning to discuss investing stolen money. Sgt. Maj. William C. Wooldridge and retired Maj. Gen. Carl C. Turner were among those testifying.
