According to the SEC, William H.T. "Bucky" Bush, brother of George H.W. Bush, was part of a group being investigated for receiving $6 million in an options backdating scheme. His former company, ESSI, sold engineering services to the military. War profiteering is a Bush family tradition going back generations. Currently, George W. Bush's father, George H.W., and brothers Jeb, Marvin, and Neil all have connections with the military-industrial complex.
