Military Contractors Are Hard to Fire
Richard Lardner, of The Associated Press, reports: "ITT Federal Services International, a defense contractor hired to maintain battle gear for US troops in Iraq, repeatedly failed to do the job right. Formal 'letters of concern' were sent to the contractor. Still, the Army didn't fire ITT. Instead, it gave the Colorado Springs, Colo.-based company more work to do. Since October 2004, ITT has been paid $638 million through the Global Maintenance and Supply Services contract."
