The last two years I was in the military, I was company commander of a military police unit. The unit had a "recreation fund" as did other units. Every month, the fund would grow. A couple of months before I left, I went to draw money out of the account for a "beer and brats" party. When I gave the withdrawal slip to the admin clerk she became nervous and told me that there was only five bucks in the account (there should have been 2,000.00 in the account). I chalked it up to me not using the account for 22 months. I paid for the party out of my own pocket.
There's a long subplot I won't get into here about there being bad blood between myself and the general on the base. Make a mental note.
About a year after I left, the general ran off a Colonel that had mentored me. A year after this, the general was arrested on 110 counts of embezzlement by the FBI with the chief accuser being the Colonel that had mentored me, and that the general had run off. The general had taken every penny he could beg, borrow and steal and pouring it into the golf course that he loved so much. That's what happened to my recreation fund.
The general got 10 years of probation on a promise of paying back the money he had embezzled.
