From: SSAA, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Daily Liberal Dubbo NSW 22/9/2000 Man in Court on air cadet fraud charges In 1988 the local air cadets received a financial windfall for rifles that would never fire another shot. But just two years later most of the money is gone and their former chief is facing fraud charges. The federal Government's National Gun Buback Scheme proved lucrative for Squadron 13 of the Air Training Corps when it was paid more than $74,000 for 30 self loading rifles. The Government paid for the guns even though they were unserviceable; the firing action on the guns had been welded. The payment was a huge profit for the squadron as the guns had been purchased for just $10 each in 1988 during a sell-off by the Lithgow Samll Arms factory. This week Grahame Yager, 36 a long time member of the Air Training Corp, former flight commander of Sqdn 13 and the man who handled the gun buyback transaction appeared in Dubbo Local Court facing fraud charges.
