and the mistaken shipment of triggers to Taiwan.
Reminds me of the time a FSN got mixed up and resulted in shipping a CVN anchor to Ft Carson CO.
When the Navy decided to kick the signoff on reqs up a level we considered doing something similar. Our chief always questioned every part we ordered. In wasn’t unusual for a module to cost thousands. A pickup truck in those days was a rather cheap $1,500. The lieutenant who took over the signoff chores never asked a question.
Would it be too much for someone in the supply chain to wonder why a DDG needed a pickup truck?
