Former sailor charged in San Diego with stealing military equipment
A former U.S. Navy sailor was charged Tuesday with selling more than 290 pieces of stolen military equipment.
Phillip Andro Jamison, 30, a former petty officer 1st class, was charged with using EBay to sell tactical flashlights, laser-aiming gear and night-vision equipment, authorities said.
Jamison had access to the armory when he was assigned to the Navy's amphibious base in Coronado, according to authorities.
He pleaded not guilty Tuesday in San Diego federal court.

Do not count him in the brig. Its getting more and more common to hear this and yet no punishment is handed down. If they are normally outstanding in their jobs, usually command will help them out of it. Just the other day one was caught for stealing high number as well as porn up to 183 items and you know what was done.......swept under the rug!!
