Retired Naval Officer Accused of Selling Night Vision Sights on eBay

A retired Naval officer currently employed as a civilian at the Naval Station Ingleside (Texas) has been accused of stealing Variable Intensity Tactical Aiming Lights (VITAL) and selling them on eBay. VITALS are laser sights that can be mounted to a weapon for nighttime use. The retired Naval officer allegedly exported them from the U.S. to buyers in Hong Kong and South Korea. Night Vision Equipment Company, a manufacturer of VITALs, includes a useful "Export Caution" icon on the company's product information pages on its website.
