How much did the military spend yesterday? $8 billion
<center>http://geke.us/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/DefenseSpending.001.png</center>


Yesterday's big winner - really big winner - was Boeing with a $5.7 billion Air Force contract for KC-46 Pegasus Combat Capability. That's in addition to the $29 million modification (increase) added to an existing Navy contract Boeing shares with Bell for upgrades to flight training devices... and two awards from the Army (one a $171 million contract and one a $39 million modification). That's a total of almost $6 billion, just on Monday, that the federal government once again awarded to Boeing.
