The New York Times reported yesterday that a small Miami company, "AEY", has been supplying substandard ammunition from aging Soviet-era eastern European stockpiles to Afghan and Iraqi military units under contracts issued by the Pentagon.

Henry Waxman's  (D-CA) House committee on Oversight and Reform wants to know more:

Chairman Henry A. Waxman announced that the Oversight Committee will hold a hearing on Thursday, April 17, 2008, to examine federal contracts awarded to AEY Inc. to supply weapons, ammunitions, and munitions to military forces in Iraq and Afghanistan.
