U.S. Rep. Walter Jones, the North Carolina congressman who doggedly championed the widows’ cause, said the Marine Corps pushed blame on the pilot and co-pilot back in 2000 because it needed the troubled program to continue and succeed.

This is beyond sad. It is sick that those up in the higher echelon in the military are willing to pin the blame on the pilots who died flying this piece-of-crap aircraft so some military contract can be protected. Public be damned. Airmen be damned.
