http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/4350373.stmThe executive summary of the Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA) report was released in the US late on Monday by Congressional Democrats critical of Halliburton's work in Iraq.

Defense Department auditors queried a bill of $27.5m for transporting propane worth $82,000.

The auditors questioned $108.41m of the overall bill. One item, the delivery of fuel to KBR in Kuwait by government-approved contractor Altanmia, cost $62m - $61m of which is now being queried.

Hank Hill must be worth zillions!

I bet the extra cost was due to them not turning in their original tank when they got a new one, its always more expesive that way.
