Justice delayed is justice denied.

In this case the politics of the introduction of Chinook 2 into service, and the miltary imperatives at the time, led some very small minded senior officers to seize an opportunity to use two dead airmen to excuse an embarassing procurement disaster.

I sincerely hope that Jon Tapper and Rick Cook will be exonerated, and the circumstances that led up to that foggy hillside be laid bare for all to see.

Perhaps Jon and Rick will sleep a little sounder tonight.
