Read about the engine tuning in a newspaper article, quite long, back in '92 during the 50th anniversary media coverage. Only saw the story once. Not the sort of thing people like to hear about, including me.

Since I did not like the idea, it took a while to be believed. Finally I decided the story was entirely too consistent with what I had learned while in the military myself. Human nature. The Texas general was out of the loop, and could not be told what was going on, and got pissed off at being ordered around by a lieutenant colonel. Yep, believable, unfortunately.

Yeah, it does sound like something that, unfortunately, happens too often.
