Unless someone can turn up a written order or strong evidence of verbal orders, the people who would get burned for accepting in-kind gifts from a defence contractor will be the aircrews. No one at DOD will get in trouble (the crews should have known better, and even I can buy that argument), and certainly not any civilians at DOD or in the maladministration.

There are some loopholes, as wellโ€”non-availability, avoid giving offense, etc. They all have low dollar thresholds.
