Pentagon to investigate Air Force tanker deal
Associated Press

WASHINGTON -- The Pentagon will investigate whether a former Air Force official improperly provided her future employer, Boeing Co., with information about a competing Airbus Industrie bid for leasing a fleet of aerial tankers, Air Force Secretary James Roche said today.

In an Associated Press interview, Roche said the investigation will be done by the Defense Department's office of the inspector general, but he did not know whether it is a criminal probe.

"I understand that there is going to be an IG investigation," Roche said. "In other words there is an allegation and they will investigate as to whether or not it is substantiated."

A spokeswoman for the inspector general's office, Marine Corps Lt. Col. Rose-Ann Lynch, said she could not comment.
