Pentagon Says Parts Sale Was Accidental.

The article reports on the accidental sale of aircraft parts to the public by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD). The U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) says that the DoD has improved security in its surplus sales program to prevent the improper sales of sensitive items. The DoD surplus sales division told investigators that the parts were sold due to its failure to update an automated control list and remove the aircraft parts before they were listed on its Internet sales site.
