Senate panel hears Bromley deny bribery link to Gen Cole
Martin J. Bromley testified under oath before a Senate Investigations subcommittee denying the charge he offered $50 000 to former Brig Gen Earl F Cole to remain silent about alleged military corruption. Bromley said he never met Cole and provided sworn statements with hotel receipts showing he was in Madrid Spain during the Frankfurt meeting. The subcommittee has described his operations as a worldwide slot machine syndicate linked to service clubs and PX operations.
